Gideon Okeke has torn Jim Iyke to shreds in a recent social media post, sparking a firestorm of reactions.
The Nigerian actor, known for his no-holds-barred approach, didn’t hold back as he took aim at Jim Iyke, accusing him of lacking authenticity both in his acting and personal life.
“If only Jim Iyke could ACT! He would have been an actor. But sorry… he’s a phoney-ass kneegar,” Gideon posted, adding, “Matter of fact? He’s a SMALL BOY TO ME. FAKE AMERICAN ACCENT, FAKE EVERYTHING. Small Boy!!!”
This unexpected attack has left fans and industry insiders buzzing, as the two actors have shared the Nollywood screen in the past without any prior signs of tension. Yet, Gideon’s bold words suggest there’s more than meets the eye.
Known for his role in Tinsel and his outspoken personality, Gideon has always been someone unafraid to speak his mind.
His attack on Jim Iyke, however, seems to go beyond a simple critique of his acting skills. By calling Jim a “small boy” and accusing him of faking his accent and persona, Gideon is making a pointed comment about Jim’s authenticity.
Jim Iyke, a Nollywood heavyweight, has built his career on playing brash, larger-than-life characters, both on and off-screen.
However, despite his fame, his reputation has been a topic of mixed reactions—some fans love his bold persona, while others have criticized it.
