A
veteran Nollywood actor and former Chairman of the Actors Guild of
Nigeria (AGN), Mr. Zack Orji, has condemned the level of indecent
dressing among actresses in the country.
Mr. Orji, a pastor in the Power Life Assembly Ministry, Owerri, made the statement in Owerri on August 7, 2013, Wednesday.
He noted that
movies which were originally meant to promote the people’s cultural
heritage and discipline were being basterdised in the name of
civilisation.
“Most movies
shown in recent times are capable of destroying the moral background of
children as they have become the most popular movie audience.
“Film production
must be properly checkmated before circulation because it is wrong for
an actor or actress to expose his or her body to the world in the
disguise of acting,” he said.
Mr. Orji said
that some actresses were suspended during his regime as the chairman of
the AGN and advised actors and actresses to lead lives worthy of
emulation.
He said that in
spite of ministerial work, he was still active in the industry but could
only accept scripts that promote morality.
