Nigerian actress Dakore Egbuson-Akande says she did not have an affair with Senate president, Godswill Akpabio.
On Sunday, a report spread quickly saying that Dakore and other female celebrities were Akpabio’s ‘girlfriends.’
On Monday, Dakore used her Instagram to say that the news was not true. She said she never met Akpabio. Here is what she wrote:
“This morning, I got lots of messages and calls telling me about a terrible lie. I feel very upset and shocked. I want to clearly say that I have never met the Senate president before.
“I have never been in the same room with him. I am happily married with two lovely children. It is very bad for a blogger to put my name with women who have been with this man. This is not true and very mean.”
“I am ready to take legal action because this lie has gone too far. I stay to myself, mind my business, drink water, and do my work. For someone to try to spoil my name and image for some clicks, it is not fair.”
“I will not accept this or be quiet about it. I want everyone to know. If anyone can show a video or audio that I have been with this man, I will give you N5 million right now,” she wrote.
