Arukwe, who played the role of Odogwu Obiora, an affluent Igbo man, who spends lavishly on his partner Chioma (played by Bambam), has been under fire for allegedly portraying Igbo men as “simps.”

While the movie has been praised by many, especially ladies as a perfect example of how men should treat their partners, some male viewers complained that the movie exaggerated men’s responsibilities to their partners.

An X user Himp2million wrote, “Anambra men are not simps. Your movie is liked only by ladies who have always had the illusion of an odogwu that’ll spend his last dime on them.”

Responding to the X user, Arukwe explained that taking care of one’s partner and spending money on them doesn’t make a simp but responsible man.

He wrote, “Taking care of your woman and spending money on her doesn’t make you a simp. It only makes you a responsible man.

This is not the first time Uzor Arukwe will be facing backlash for allegedly overlaying his role in a movie.

 

In 2023, he was accused of exaggerating his Igbo accent in Funke Akindele’s blockbuster, ‘A Tribe Called Judah.’
