The photo of Okonkwo and the unidentified man kissing passionately has gone viral on the Internet, raising questions about his sexuality.
Nollywood actor comes under fire for kissing man on movie set
Controversial Nollywood actor Benson Okonkwo has joined the porn movie industry after he was seen kissing a man on a movie set
The photo first appeared on Real Nolly TV and has fuelled speculations that he could be either gay or bisexual despite his previous denials.
Okonkwo who never been able to stay away from controversies once had to grant interviews where he dispelled any rumour that he was a homosexual by saying he can never act a porn movie neither can he kiss another man.
“I am not gay and I have never acted in a porn movie because I am not a porn star,” he was quoted as saying.
However, he had also granted an interview in 2014 where he extolled pornography, saying that porn movies would help Nollywood grow.
This is what he said in that interview:
"We watch pornographic movies like that in Hollywood. Nigerians are hypocrites. I think pornography makes our movies more real.
And for that reason, I am in support of it. If you take a good look at Hollywood movies, for example, you will notice that it is rampant and it means nothing to them.
Pornography is good for Nollywood. It’s like acting normal roles, first and foremost. It’s a movie and you act exactly what is in your script.
And there are restrictions, besides kissing and touching here and there. Nigerian movies are not made for everyone."
Is anyone shocked that he has finally joined the train of pornography as seen in the photo.?
