Jim Iyke has distanced himself from the controversy stirred by Shatta Wale.
Appearing on TV3's Showbiz 360, the Nigerian actor was asked about his opinion on Shatta Wale's comments.
In response, he said he does not have a problem with Shatta Wale’s opinions as long as they do not interfere with the relationship they have built over the years as friends.
The actor revealed that Shatta Wale is his personal friend who supports him in everything he does.“Shatta actually supports everything I do, so I don’t know, I mean the man is entitled to his opinion as long as it doesn’t rob of my personal relationship with him”, he said.
In a chat with Giovani Caleb, he continued that "it’s people’s reaction that determines, people react to things in a different way, you could say something bad and I would see a major good in it, I will just chalk it down, it could be your opinion and you are entitled to it”.
“The fact that I disagree with someone’s opinion does not mean I should dislike his personality”, he concluded.
