Nigerians don't want to help Prince James Uche because he is not a 'fine girl' 'Emeka Ike

Published by Kemi Filani on Sat, 14 Jan 2017


While veteran actor, Prince James Uche is battling with his health and other domestic issues especially as it was alleged he was kicked out of his home for his inability to pay his house rent, so many Nigerians wondered why Actors Guild of Nigeria had yet to assist one of their own financially.In an exclusive chat with Saturday Beats, the president of the guild, Emeka Ike, claimed he had done all he could to assist the actor while also claiming he is putting structures in place so that members of the guild would not go begging when they need help. But then, Ike is of the opinion that most Nigerians have yet to assist the actor because he is not a female. 'It is sad that someone like Prince James is begging for help but what is sadder is the fact that one Nigerian can actually pay all his medical bills. But because the sickness does not involve a fine girl, everybody is minding their business. I bet you that if it was a fine girl that was in his shoes, a lot of Nigerian men would have signified interest in helping but because the matter at hand involves an old man, everyone seems to be turning a deaf ear. I implore all Nigerians to please support this wonderful talent and help him back on his feet. On my part, I would continue to do what I can to help him and other members of the Actors Guild of Nigeria.'He said, 'I have done what I can personally for Prince James and I also call on Nigerians to also come and help out en masse. But I really do not believe in actors coming out to beg for money to solve one issue or the other and that is why my administration is working on a biometric card with my friend Pretty Okafor of PMAN so that we can know all our members and cater for them especially when they are in dire need of help.'But in a recent development, it was reported that the Abia State government just released the sum of N10m to the veteran actor.
