Veteran actor Jim Iyke made bold claims about the Nigerian entertainment industry during an interview, stating it's designed to glorify Satan rather than God.

He argued that fame and self-glorification in the industry align with Satanic philosophy, which he described as seeking worship and elevation to a godlike status.

Iyke reflected on his past, admitting he once mistook adulation from fans for proof of his own specialness before his Christian faith changed his perspective.

He also shared how he accidentally entered acting while broke, looking for money to buy beer, but the experience led him to realize acting was where he belonged.

Despite criticizing the industry's focus on self-promotion, Iyke acknowledged there might be godly content but stressed that the industry is predominantly built for the opposite.His comments sparked discussions about the cultural and spiritual impact of Nollywood and its role in shaping societal values.
