Nollywood Chaos: A Nollywood film shoot turned chaotic on Saturday. Actor Godwin Nnadiekwe was rushed to the hospital after a serious injury. He suffered internal bleeding when fellow actor Zubby Michael kicked him in the chest.
A video shows Zubby Michael jumping out of a car and over a barricade. Then, he kicked Nnadiekwe hard in the chest and quickly ran away. Nnadiekwe said the kick was not part of the script. The director did not approve it.
“The kick was not planned, rehearsed, or approved. It was never part of the script,” Nnadiekwe posted on social media.
At first, Nnadiekwe did not name who kicked him. But the video clearly shows Zubby Michael as the attacker. Fans and colleagues were shocked and angry about the unsafe action on set.
After the kick, Nnadiekwe felt severe pain in his chest. He had to get medical care on his own. The film team did not help or pay for his treatment.
“I handled the treatment myself. No one from the production team helped me,” he said.
Later, Nnadiekwe’s management said his health got worse. They confirmed he was taken to the hospital for emergency care due to internal bleeding caused by the kick.
Call for Better Safety on Film Sets
Nnadiekwe called for stronger safety rules on Nollywood sets. He said actors need proper insurance and medical help during risky scenes. He also said violent scenes should be planned carefully.
“Fight scenes must be carefully choreographed. Without planning, actors can get badly hurt or worse,” he warned.
Many fans and actors want Zubby Michael and the producers to be held responsible. This incident raises serious concerns about actor safety during tough scenes in Nollywood. Nollywood Chaos
