Nollywood actress Dakore Egbuson-Akande has vehemently denied rumors of an affair with Senate President Godswill Akpabio. This denial follows an Instagram blog post that listed several female Nigerian celebrities, including Dakore, alleging they were Akpabio’s mistresses.
In a post on her Instagram page, Dakore condemned the allegations as a “wicked lie,” asserting that she has never met Akpabio. She expressed her shock and disappointment at the false claims and threatened legal action against the blog for attempting to tarnish her reputation.
Dakore also announced a reward of N5 million to anyone who could provide concrete evidence of her alleged affair with Akpabio.
She stated, “I saw calls and text messages this morning, alerting me to a very wicked lie from the pit of hell. I must say that I am very disappointed, I am very shocked, I am appalled and I want to categorically state that I have never ever in my life met the Senate President.
“I have not had any cause to see him or be in the same room with him, not to talk of being his side chick. I am happily married, I have two beautiful children… so for a blogger, a jobless wicked blogger, to decide to put my name amongst women who have been with this man is totally wicked and unfounded.
“It is a lie from the pit of hell, and I am ready for any legal action because at this point, you have messed with the wrong person. I keep to myself, I mind my business, I drink water, and I do my work. So for someone to want to tarnish my hard-earned name and image for some clicks, no way.
“I am not going to stand for it, I am not going to accept it, and I am not going to be quiet about it. I want to put it out there, anyone who can say I have been with this man and you have hard evidence, video or audio, I would give you N5 million right now.
“Because I have worked too hard for my name and reputation for someone to just wake up one morning and want to cause wahala in my life. I reject it and I categorically stand against it.”
