‘I Am Not A Dog’ – Actress, Uche Elendu Speaks On Angela Okorie’s Outburst
Nollywood actress, Uche Elendu, has said there is nothing to react to as regards the outburst of her colleague, Angela Okorie.
Naija News recalls that earlier this month (July), Angela, in the wake of Uche’s 40th birthday, made a series of allegations on social media against her and her friend, Anita Joseph.
However, in an interview with Punch, Uche Elendu said she does not react to every noise that is directed at her because she is not a dog.
The movie stars said there is a body to which aggrieved Nollywood stars can take their complaints, and it would be resolved amicably, instead, many celebrities have turned social media into a court, thereby making a fool of themselves and ranting over issues that could be resolved amicably.
The actress added that she does not join the bandwagon of people who throw tantrums on social media because their aim is to tarnish her image and make her less attractive to brands.
She said, “As you all know, it is only a dog that sees another dog barking and starts to bark. I am not one, so I cannot react to every noise. As far as I am concerned, there is really nothing to react to.
“We have a body where people should take their complaints to for them to be resolved amicably. But, people have turned social media into a court; thereby making a fool of themselves by ranting on issues that could be resolved amicably.
“Many people feel that going to social media would probably make the other party less attractive to brands, and give them a bad name. Most of them go on social media to spread lies to tarnish the image of the person they are having issues with.
“Like they say, ‘a clear conscience fears no accusation’. When one is sure of who one is, one does not need to join the bandwagon. When I see things like that, I know what they are trying to do. But, I know who I am. I know that what belongs to me will definitely come to me. That’s why I pay deaf ears to things like that. They don’t move me”
