Uzor Arukwe Prioritizes Consent with Married Co-Stars

In a recent interview with BBC Igbo, Nollywood actor Uzor Arukwe addressed criticism regarding his romantic roles, particularly in relation to his co-star Bambam. He emphasized the importance of seeking consent from married female colleagues before any physical interaction during film shoots.

Arukwe explained that he does not want to create problems in the homes of his married colleagues. He specifically mentioned that during the filming of their first movie together, he asked Bambam for permission to touch her in certain scenes.

This approach reflects his respect for the boundaries of his colleagues' marriages and highlights a growing awareness of consent in the film industry.
