AFRIMEK Puts Actor Papa Show on Suspension for Assaulting Junior Colleague Temidayo Morkinyo

Nollywood actor Shoneye Olamilekan, popularly known as Papa Show, has been suspended by AFRIMEK following allegations of physically assaulting his female junior colleague, Temidayo Morkinyo.

According to a report by Kemi Filani, Temidayo Morkinyo accused Papa Show of assaulting her on a movie set. She shared her account of the incident on her Instagram story, stating that the actor had come to her movie set in Ibadan, Oyo State, accompanied by some individuals who proceeded to physically attack her. Temidayo claimed that Papa Show punched her in the face, resulting in a broken lip. The assault allegedly occurred after she reported his misconduct to her bosses on May 18.

Temidayo narrated that Papa Show had rudely demanded that she buy him a drink while they were on set together. She felt belittled by his disrespectful behavior but complied with his request. Subsequently, she reported the incident to her superiors, Afeez Abiodun Seriki and Niyi Johnson, who assured her they would address the situation.

To her surprise, Papa Show arrived at her movie set with others to assault her after being reprimanded by the bosses. Temidayo’s family is now seeking justice for the alleged assault, which she claims has caused her significant pain.

In response to the incident, AFRIMEK (The African Men Entertainment Kings) issued a letter, signed by Mayor Femi Adebayo, in which they distanced themselves from Papa Show. The letter stated that his actions are not in line with the values and principles of the association. Consequently, the association has suspended Papa Show immediately and initiated further investigations into the matter. AFRIMEK expressed sympathy for Temidayo Morkinyo and offered to cover her medical expenses.

The letter, addressing the suspension and denouncing the actor’s behavior, can be seen below:
