Nollywood actor, Shoneye Olamilekan otherwise know as Papa Show has been suspended from AFRIMEK for physically assaulting his female junior colleague, Temidayo Morkinyo.
Naijachoice Media reported that Temidayo Morkinyo had accused the actor of physically assaulting her on a movie set.
In a series of posts on her Instagram story, Temidayo claimed that the actor had stormed her movie set in Ibadan, Oyo State with some boys to beat her up.
According to her, Papa Show punched her in the face and left her with a broken lip for reporting his unruly behavior to her bosses on Thursday, May 18.
Narrating the incident, she stated that she was on movie set on Wednesday when Papa Show called her rudely to buy him a drink. She further stated that she felt ridiculed with how he talked to her, but didn’t disobey.
She, however, went to report him to her bosses, Afeez Abiodun Seriki and Niyi Johnson, and they promised to call him to order.
In a surprising twist, the actor stormed her set with some people to beat her up after he was reprimanded.
Temidayo Morkinyo added that her family is calling
for justice as the assault has allegedly left her in pain.
Reacting to it, The African Men Entertainment Kings (AFRIMEK) in a letter signed by the Mayor, Femi Adebayo, has distanced itself from the actor.
Femi Adebayo, in the letter, stated that his actions do not represent the identity for which their club stands for and has been known to present.
His shameful act has left the association to sanction him and place him on immediate suspension, while further investigations are ongoing.
The association also sympathize with Temidayo Morkinyo and offered to cover her medical expenses.
