Nollywood film maker,
Krissyjoh Chris has defended the actress, Peace Maria Francis, who
exposed her breasts in an epic movie in which she featured.
DAILY
POST recalls that in the epic movie, the actress who hails from Akwa
Ibom state appeared in different scenes flaunting her bare breasts.
The
actress, a few weeks after the completion of the shoot, came under
criticism from the public following her ‘nude’ pictures which surfaced
online. She however defended herself by saying she was ‘just being
professional.’
“It is all because I wanted to
use it to tell the real story of what happened back then in our country,
Nigeria,” she had explained.
Concerned folks
lambasted her, tagging her ‘prostitute’, ‘shameless hustler’.
However,
defending the actress, Chris took to his Facebook page to clarify that
“Nudity in movie is not a crime. Yes, it’s true. The actress, Maria
Francis is not a prostitute, thank God she has now opened up, before she
was afraid.
I
gave her the courage to come out from her hidden pit, I’m so happy that
Nigerians have heard it all from the horse’s mouth.
“She
didn’t do it for money or fame, this is the same reply I replied the
journalists.
“Some say they have slept with her
and almost all the girls who acted nude in the epic film.
“No
crime in trying to bring back the ancient tradition where women dress
without covering their breasts in public,” the director added.
