Nollywood actress Ini Edo has been implicated in a scandal involving ex-lover of her colleague actress, Empress Njamah, called Nicholas Jack Davies.
Davies has been confirmed by the Liberian police as a notorious scammer who targeted wealthy women, entered into romantic relationships with them, and swindled them of their fortunes.
Reports have surfaced that, in additio n to his known victim in Nigeria, Empress Njamah, he possessed intimate videos of about nine other female celebrities.
Amidst these recent developments, Ini Edo has been accused of having a relationship with Davies.
To support this claim is a recording of a video call between Davies and Ini Edo as well as a snapshot of her passport that was allegedly found on his phone.
This accusation has garnered widespread attention, with many people criticising the actress, according to Pulse Nigeria.
But in her response, Ini Edo said she has no amorous dealings with him.
She said he contacted her months ago, claiming to be producing a movie and requesting her participation. Edo further claimed that she ceased communication with him when he began making advances towards a romantic relationship.
“Someone texted me with a foreign number sometime last year, August/September/November, someone called me and said he wanted to work with me and when I asked how he got my number he said a colleague gave it to him.
I feel like people should leave me alone, I have my stuff going on, I am just trying to be me and leave a decent life and do what’s right for me, my family, and my career.
Everyone should just leave me alone, enough with all these lies. It is easy to pick on Ini’s name and just talk shit and I just keep quiet, enough is enough,” she said on Instagram live.
