I played villain roles to expose societal ills – Patience Ozokwor

Published

on

Veteran Nollywood actress Patience Ozokwor has said she takes pride in the “villainous” characters she portrays in films, noting that they are designed to reflect and expose societal realities rather than define her personality.

Speaking during a recent video chat, the 67-year-old actress addressed long-standing public perceptions that often blur the line between her on-screen roles and her real-life identity.

Ozokwo, widely known for her “Mama G” persona, said many viewers mistakenly assume she is wicked in real life because of the harsh characters she plays in films.

She explained that her performances are intentional and meant to highlight societal ills, particularly those often ignored or normalised.

“I feel bold to expose the ills in society. Those things happen and nobody wants to expose them. I am exposing them,” she said.

The actress stressed that her roles as strict mothers, antagonistic in-laws, and other tough characters are purely professional interpretations, not reflections of her personal life.

“I am not like that, but I expose it. I am extremely proud of myself and Mama G lovers are proud of me,” she added.

Ozokwo noted that acting is a craft built on storytelling and moral reflection, and said she is pleased that many of her fans understand the message behind her performances.

Over the years, she has become one of Nollywood’s most recognisable figures, with a career defined by powerful portrayals of complex and often controversial characters.

Alavin retracts viral allegation against Wizkid associate Godson, urges public to disregard video

Published

on

Emmanuel Jakpa, popularly known as Alavin, has retracted a viral video linked to the controversy involving businessman and social media influencer, Uyi Godson Agho, popularly known as Godson, urging members of the public to disregard its contents.

Alavin’s statement comes days after Godson an associate of afrobeat star, Wizkid denied allegations that he defrauded social media influencer, Clement Akpobome Ogudu, popularly known as IsokoBoy (ISB), of N100 million, insisting that the matter was a business disagreement that had been misrepresented as fraud.

In a video statement released on Sunday, Alavin said the earlier recording he made on June 28, 2026, involving Godson did not reflect the true situation.

“The content of the video is not true. I hereby make this video as a rejoinder and urge the general public to disregard the earlier video being posted online by one Mr. Richie,” he said.

Alavin further clarified that the continued circulation of the earlier video by Richie was driven by a previous disagreement between Richie and Godson.


“Whatever Richie is posting and saying is out of jealousy and the issue he had previously with Godson,” he stated.

He also maintained that his rejoinder was made voluntarily, restating his continued friendship with Godson.

“I am not making this video under duress. We are all friends,” he added.


The development follows Godson’s petition to the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, through his lawyer, C. C. Ezenwa, Esq., in which he denied defrauding IsokoBoy and described the dispute as arising from a clothing business allegedly valued at about N320 million.

He also alleged that IsokoBoy, Alavin, and others confronted him at his residence, recorded him while he was unclothed, and later circulated the footage online with claims that he had defrauded his business partner.
