In a recent incident on a movie set, Nollywood actors Jigan Babaoja and Damilola Oni found themselves at odds over a kissing scene. The dispute quickly escalated, with both actors expressing their contrasting opinions on social media.
Jigan took to his Instagram page to voice his frustration, sharing a video of himself, Damilola, and other cast and crew members engaged in a heated argument over the issue. The actress questioned why she should kiss Jigan, emphasizing that it was not part of the script. However, Jigan, visibly angry, insisted that the kiss was necessary.
The disagreement did not go unnoticed by their fellow colleagues, who chimed in on Jigan's Instagram post. Some sided with Damilola, questioning why she should be compelled to kiss him. Femi Adebayo commented, "Wahala wa o," while Sola Olaibi Gaji wrote, "Werey Omo, she no fit kiss you that's all." Foluke Daramola also added, "Jigan kilo fa ekun na??? Iya kiss he e ni kekere ni."
On the other hand, there were those who supported Jigan's stance. Salami Rotimi called for "Justice for JIGAN," and Woli Agba reassured Jigan that his fans would understand the film even without the kissing scene. Adebayo Salami humorously remarked, "How will she kiss you, now that you are rolling on the floor?" Kemi Afolabi even offered to kiss Jigan in her next movie.
Among the comments, some speculated that Jigan had planned the controversy to ensure the on-screen kiss with Damilola. Biodun Okeowo accused Jigan of orchestrating the situation, stating, "Seems you orchestrated this plan of having @thedamilolaoni kiss you in the movie with my full chest. I support her decision not to kiss you. Roll on the floor and in the mud, na you sabi."
As the dispute continues, the cast and crew of the movie find themselves divided, attempting to mediate and find a resolution. The controversy highlights the differing perspectives within Nollywood regarding on-screen intimacy and the creative choices made during filming.
