Recall that Jim Iyke made headlines in 2021 after a video of him beating Maduagwu for questioning the source of his wealth on social media, went viral.

Controversial Nollywood actor Uche Maduagwu has made a boast during a recent interview.

He claimed that he is responsible for reviving veteran colleague, Jim Iyke’s acting career.

He made the claim while addressing his 2021 stunt with Jim Iyke in a recent episode of the Trends and Bants podcast.

Recall that Jim Iyke made headlines in 2021 after a video of him beating Maduagwu for questioning the source of his wealth on social media, went viral.

However, Maduagwu disclosed in 2022 that the video was a stunt to promote Jim Iyke’s comeback movie, and that he received N4.8 million for the stunt.

Speaking on the Trends and Bants podcast recently, Maduagwu claimed that before the stunt, the veteran actor was absent from the movie industry.

He said, “The truth is I revived Jim Iyke’s career with that stunt. Before the skit, were you hearing about Jim Iyke everywhere? I revived his acting career.”
