LIVE From Lagos! AMAA 2012 UPDATE: Morris Chestnut rejects Eko hotel accommodation, calls it ''crappy''

Hollywood actor Morris Chestnut, who is presently in the country as a special guest of the 2012 African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) has allegedly refused to reside in his Eko Hotel and Suites accommodation.

A local newspaper quoted Morris Chestnut as saying, "…it is crappy…I am displeased at the standard of the hotel".

Meanwhile, a top level representative of the organizers of the awards, billed to hold on Sunday April 22, 2012, stated that the stars are not staying at the Eko Hotel for reasons bordering on privacy.

'I can confirm that they are not staying in Eko Hotel, but this is to avoid them being mobbed. I will however not disclose where they are staying now', the source said.

However, other sources have confirmed that the actor, in company of colleague Rockmond Dunbar, are staying at the Radisson Blu Hotel.
