I Was Kissed Without My Consent – Nollywood Actor Recounts Club Experience
Nollywood actor, Mike Folarin, has opened up on his most ridiculous experience in the entertainment industry.
Speaking in a candid interview with VJ Adams, Folarin lamented that he finds it difficult to handle overzealous female fans.
He disclosed that some female fans have gone as far as kissing him without his consent.
“Getting unsolicited kisses is the most ridiculous fan experience I have had. Yeah, getting kissed without my consent. It happened Lagos, in the club. So, I guess everybody was intoxicated,” he said.
The movie star urged fans to always seek celebrities’ consents before doing anything with them, stressing that consent is paramount.
Meanwhile, Nollywood actor, Daniel Etim-Effiong, has shared how a painful experience during his university days changed the direction of his life and faith.
Abia Radio News reports that the actor revealed in an interview with Taymesan that he was once expelled from the Federal University of Technology, Minna, after being wrongly accused of cultism.
He explained that the incident shocked him deeply and left him emotionally broken, especially because he believed he had done nothing wrong.
After leaving school, Etim-Effiong moved to Jos in Plateau State.
He said the new environment gave him a sense of freedom, but that freedom came with anger and confusion.
During that period, he picked up habits such as smoking and womanizing, actions he linked to frustration and disappointment with life.
He explained that the situation affected his relationship with God.
At the time, he was actively involved in Christian activities and was a member of a student fellowship.
He had expected support when the accusation surfaced, but according to him, the fellowship refused to stand by him or protest his expulsion.
The lack of backing from people he trusted left him hurt and discouraged.
As time passed, the actor said he gradually stopped attending church, feeling abandoned and let down during one of the most difficult moments of his life.
He said: “That same year I got expelled from the university for belonging to cult, for belonging to confra. Which confra? I was a church boy.
“It was in Jos I started smoking, it was in Jos I started womanizing, because I was free and it was just like I was almost like angry at God.
“I’m like ‘Why did you let this thing happen to me? like I was an SU, you didn’t even defend me.
“I told the fellowship in FUTMINNA then that ‘You guys should protest.’”
