The Nigerian actress Dakore Egbuson-Akande has refuted allegations that she is having an extramarital affair with Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
A blog posted the names of several famous women on Sunday, including Dakore, with the assertion that they are Akpabio’s “side chicks.”
The actress responded to the claims by calling them a “very wicked lie” in an Instagram post, noting that she has never met the Senate President.
In addition, she vowed to take the blog to court for allegedly attempting to “tarnish my hard earned name and image.”
The actress pledged to pay N5 million to anyone who could show proof of her liaison with Akpabio.
“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,” she said.
“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.”
