Big Brother Naija ‘All Stars’ contestant, Pere Egbi has vowed to scrap co-housemate, Venita Akpofure’s part from a movie he produced.

The actor and filmmaker while having a conversation with Frodd and Kiddwaya on Thursday, said he will yank off her scenes and released the film with other characters.

Pere and Venita who are both Nollywood filmmakers cum actors, got into a heated exchange early Thursday and t resulted in them calling each other unprintable names in Biggie’s house.

During the pool party at night, the former US soldier told Kidd and Frodd that he had paid her N1 million for the role, but he would still remove her from his film.

Kiddwaya asked:

“What is going on with you [Pere] and her [Venita]? I need to understand the dynamics now because this one is not house beef anymore. This is like outside issues. What’s going on?”

Frodd cut in:

“She [Venita] actually f**king hates your guts. But is she not your star in your movie?”

Pere responded:

“I’m scrapping her [Venita’s part] off. I mean, I will delete her name from the credit, I will delete her pictures.

“I don’t mean to reshoot the movie o. I will promote the film but I will use other actors in the movie except her. I gave her N1 million to be on set for four days.”

The duo however, pleaded with Pere not to delete Venita’s part from the movie as it would be “petty” but he insisted he would scrap her off.
