The entertainment world is buzzing as Nollywood veteran actor Jim Iyke celebrates his birthday today, September 25th, 2023. However, what's causing the online commotion is the actor's age, as he turns 47 years old.
Jim Iyke, renowned for his versatile talent, holds a degree in philosophy from the University of Jos. Over the years, he has made an indelible mark in the entertainment industry, solidifying his position as a shining star within it.
Despite his numerous contributions and successes, Jim Iyke has not been without controversy. A highly publicized altercation with fellow actor Emma Emordi on a movie set in 2011 drew significant attention and criticism. The incident, captured on video, triggered intense discussions about Jim Iyke's behavior.
In addition to such altercations, the actor, now in his late 40s, has faced accusations of fraud.

However, Jim Iyke took responsibility for his actions and ultimately reached an out-of-court settlement.
