Charles Novia resumes feud with Chika Ike’s manager

After weeks of silence, top producer Charles Novia and Serah Donald, manager of delectable actress Chika Ike (pictured), have continued their conflict.

Last month, pictures of the adventurous trip of Ike and her team to the United Arab Emirates were all over social media.

The actress posed in private yacht and toured top destinations in Dubai.

Novia had described the act as “needless show-off”.

Reacting, Donald criticised told the filmmaker to mind his business. Now, Novia has responded by calling her an “industry lap-dog”.

“This Serah Donald crossed a line of decorum by calling me names. That is not new within the circle of her ilk who are sometimes critiqued by me in professional articles but what is irksome is her blatant disregard for seniority within the industry,” he said.

“If posting pictures of an average actress who mistakes facial recognition for ‘stardom’ in the belief that the public must be forced to reckon with the ‘arrival’ of her principal in the social circuits, is what makes her a manager or perhaps a publicist, it goes to show the shallow mentality behind such reasoning.

“Her antecedents as an industry lap dog who chases after the juiciest bone is known to those who bother to scrutinise her lifestyle and life. Such are the adventures of hangers-on and lap dogs.  For fear of losing their crumbs at the feast table, they must bark in stupidity rather than bay at the dimming moon of their unfortunate lives.”

Would Donald fire back or simply allow sleeping dogs lie? Time would tell.
