British-Nigerian Hollywood Actor, John Boyega has finally reacted to claims by media personality, Toke Makinwa.
Toke Makinwa had claimed his bodyguard assaulted her during his last visit to Nigeria.
Some weeks back, Toke Makinwa had taken to her IG page to recount how Boyega’s guard humiliated her at a bar.
She stated he even tried getting her to leave the bar.
However, according to Boyega, none of this happened.

Meanwhile, he revealed while on a show on CNBC Africa that he plans to shoot a low budget Nigerian movie with about $20-$25million (N9billion).
Boyega spoke to Power Lunch West Africa host, Onyi Sunday during the promotion of his new movie “Pacific Rim.”
“We’re developing a few Nigerian stories and choosing one which makes sense budget-wise. We’re probably looking at an indie budget of $20-$25 million dollars.”
With the highest Nigerian movie having a budget less than $500,000, the “Star Wars” actor might be starting a revolution that will create a marriage between the Nigerian movie industry and the American movie industry.
From the pictures he painted, John Boyega might have given the hint of working with one of Nollywood’s finest actresses, Genevieve Nnaji.
“I’m very interested in original Nigerian stories. I grew up on Nollywood.
“The first Nollywood film I ever watched was Blood Sisters with Genevieve Nnaji,” the 26-year-old actor told Power Lunch West Africa host, Onyi Sunday during his interview at CNBC Africa.
