Controversial Nollywood actor, Uche Maduagwu, on Monday, shocked and surprised his fans when he announced that he lied about himself being a gay.
According to him, the lie has cost him his girlfriend and robbed him of movie roles opportunities.
Revealing these via his official Instagram account @uchemadagwu, the actor wrote: Dear fans I am not gay. I lost movie roles endorsement and my girlfriend fighting for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) in Nigeria.
“Omg! Even my girlfriend left me despite knowing I was fighting for LGBT right in naija but I no regret using my celebrity status to fight for this beautiful community,” he said.
Maduagwu said he identifies with the LGBTQ community only to fight for their right in Nigeria and he does not regret using his celebrity status to do so.
The actor back in January in a now-deleted Instagram post announced he is proudly gay. He called on his followers then to accept and respect other people’s choices.
Notably, the actor has deleted all his previous posts parading himself as gay on Instagram.
