In a recent interview with Glam Africa Magazine, here what Jim Iyke Said about Nigerian Bloggers
“Oh
Yes! There are bloggers who cannot feed themselves, then all of a sudden
someone informs them that with a few hits, money would be transferred into your
account and they become obsess. Any lives that get wrecked in the wake of that
obsession, they do not care about. There are some good blogs out there, do not
get me wrong. I am not a great fan of BellaNaija, but she is smart, she is
articulate, and she knows what she is doing. Even when she attacks me or writes
about me, you will know that there is the chance of a researched truth, though
it may not be in its entirety. So, there are one or two good blogs out there
that make an effort to research. Linda Ikeji is one of the lamest of them all,
and some others that do not make any effort, they just ‘‘cut and paste’’. There
are people who are really trained for this job, they understand this job,
people who are intellectually gifted as writers, yet they are taking food out
of their mouths because of the new order of things. There is one they call
Ladun, me I call names if I want to, I do not care. This is stuff that fellow
so called celebs want to talk about but do not have the balls to. This is part
of the gains of already being labelled a black sheep, whatever I say now would
not shock anybody. I just keep it real.”
Jim Iyke's beef with Charles Novia & Segun Arinze started from their reactions to his
September 2013 deliverance at Prophet TB Joshua’s Synagogue Church of All Nations which
was aired on the church’s Emmanuel TV and later went viral.
“I
will deem it completely reprehensible if I say what happened was orchestrated
like people suggested. Segun Arinze and Charles Novia, men that
I respected a lot, came out to say something completely derogatory of what
happened that day. I am not really cool with Novia, we have always been at
odds with each other, and nobody asked his opinion on what happened to another
actor. Do not involve yourself in people’s private issues, I don’t talk about
your wife, I do not say she is overweight, nor do I talk about the fact that
you need therapy. I do not talk about your personal issues though looking at you,
I am sure you have enormous personal issues.
“I do not talk about Segun, I know one or
two things about him like he knows about me. We are not that close so he has no
authority to talk about what happened in my life. He used to be like a big
brother, one that I respect, but he lost all that because of the way he went
about this issue.”
