The actor expressed strong disapproval over the circulation of the material, describing it as indecent and offensive.
He stressed that he has no connection to Jaruma or her products and emphasized that any association in the video misrepresents his identity and reputation.
The actor used his social media platform to make his stance clear, expressing outrage at the situation.
In a statement shared on his Instagram page on Friday, Emeka Ike called attention to the misuse of his image and name, highlighting the seriousness of the matter.
He described the video as “disgusting” and inappropriate, insisting that it falsely suggests his involvement or endorsement.
