Scandal free? Not that I’m a saint-Ken Erics

By Ugochukwu Favour-Mayor

Fast rising Nollywood actor, Ken Erics broke the silence in the Nollywood industry recently when he left some tongues wagging with his response on the secret behind him going scandal free.

While reacting, the Nollywood actor of the rave said that having been able to stay scandal free does not complement him of being a saint, but evidently melded it as being lucky.

According to him, “I would simply say I am a lucky person when it comes to scandal. No scandal yet. But that is not to say I am a saint or holier than anybody. We all are humans with numerous shortcomings. Moreover this is entertainment. The fact that there is no scandal today doesn't rule out the possibility of one. I just keep praying and doing my job, and I think that is all I owe my fans,” he responded.

Earlier, the fair-skinned actor who was on the news for an obvious reason, which regarded him of being in competition with his Ghanaian counterpart and actor, Majid Michel, he described as hardiwork of rumormongers, who according to him are bent at defaming people's image.

In his words: “That's far from the truth. I can't compete with anybody, not at all. Why should I? Every one is unique in his or her way. I mean, every actor brings certain individuality to the table, and as such there is no room for unhealthy competition. Moreover I respect my colleagues and I think they do the same. Acting is symbiotic. I learn from every single person I come across irrespective of status. For me, there's always something to pick up from every individual. So there is no competition or whatsoever with my Ghanaian counterpart, Majid Michel,” he replied.
