Nollywood actress, Evan Okora has cried out for help on social media claiming some people are trying to kill her because of a movie she made.
The actress shared a video of herself with swollen lips and face. She is seen crying in the video, while begging people to intervene and save her.
She shared another video of herself late at night, arriving at the police station from where she gave an update.
According to her, she was being attacked because of a movie she made about an app called Bigo, owned by a Singaporean based company.
Calling on her Nollywood colleagues for help, she asked them to act now and not wait until she’s dead to type “RIP”.
Some viewers who reacted said she was seeking publicity for her movie and asked why Nigerians will fight her for shooting a movie about an app owned by a Singaporean.
In another video, she explained that some people had written a letter to the owners of the app, claiming she was using their app name to shoot a pornographic film.
To fight back the claim, she uploaded the movie, showing there’s no porn in it, and the people who filed the complaint are now attacking her and forcing her to delete the movie.
She added that she can’t delete the movie as demanded because that’s her only evidence in the public space to counter the report made against her.
