The United Kingdom Celebrity Premiere of the movie, 2 Dollaz has come and gone, but it was a tough day and fans, especially those that bought the VIP tickets, will not forget in a hurry.

The Jim Iyke movie was premiered at the Odeon Cinema, Bugsby Way, Greenwich, UK on Friday, 12 November last year. And it paraded other movie stars like Mercy Johnson, Sam Loco and Victoria Inyama.

NollywoodReel gathered that the fans who paid more than 20 pounds to watch the premiere were disappointed as the organisers did not live up to expectations.

While campaigning for the show, the organisers had promised that there will be a VIP section, which will be demarcated from the regular side, which was why the admission fee differed, but there was nothing like that. Those that paid for the VIP seats were sandwiched with the regulars.

According to a fan who bought the VIP ticket, “my friends and I were very disappointed because there was no VIP section at all. Besides, there were no seats at all, so we were asked to watch the show standing. We actually left in annoyance because we could not pay that much and put up with such inconvenience.”

They also told NollywoodReel that when they tried to complain to Jim Iyke, he snubbed them.
