Nollywood actor Jim Iyke has expressed his comfort with how the public perceives him.
In a recent Instagram post, he stated that he would not compromise his principles, even if it means being misunderstood. Iyke added that his commitment to his values has played a significant role in shaping his career.
“I have grown extremely comfortable being the villain in some people’s stories. Many times, the lines between wrong and right blur in these narratives. I am happy as always to dispense with my side of it. My recourse is to distance myself from the grandstanding and theatrics.
“Sometimes, I am quick to build a wall before compromising my ideologies and principles. It is what forged who I am. It’s what inspires what I am to become.
“One thing is certain: you must trust people to be who they are. The moon will turn red before I’m who I am not. I am light to many. Others, I am what their insecurities amplify. I’m hated for it. I’m loved for it.”
