Tonto Dikeh Lures Frank Artus Into Trouble
Presently he said to be in a stiff battle with a lot of Nigerian actors who don’t like his gut.
According to what we gathered, the actor fought a top Nigerian movie star, Chigozie Atuanya(Blackberry Babes "Mugu") on the set of a big budget movie(Mama Africa), which was being shot in Lagos. The two actors fell apart while they were shooting a scene that required physical molestation.
Frank who felt totally beaten up by the actor believed there was more to the beating as he confided in Tonto Dikeh, who was also on the set of the movie.
But
rather than help matters, the actress we gathered fuelled the rift by
convincing the Ghana actor that she heard Chigozie telling some friends
that he would use that scene as an opportunity to beat up Frank. This
angered the Ghana actor and he started planning revenge.
Unknown to the Nollywood star Chigozie who sources revealed had earlier apologized to Frank for the strong beating he received while the shoot was on, Frank merely pretended to have accepted the apology but he was already planning revenge.
The opportunity came for him in the next scene, where he was suppose to retaliate on the soldiers for beating him up earlier and he revenged by beatingthe Nigerian so hard that he inflicted wounds on the guy.
The movie shoot was called off for the day as a result of the injury while the actor sources revealed had to take a break to treat his wounds.
Ever
since the incident occurred, there’s been a lot of speculations ongoing
as the many also criticized the role the Nigerian actress Tonto played
in the rift, “she it was who generated the crises with false rumours” a
member of the production crew squealed.
After a lot of colleagues in the industry had spoken to Frank on the issue, he became remorseful few days later and offered to a lip service apology and both have since moved on.
