Nollywood actress Judy Austin has responded to allegations made by her ex-husband, Mr. Obasi, during a recent podcast interview, describing his claims as false and defamatory.
In a strongly worded statement, Judy revealed that she first met her current husband, Yul Edochie, on a movie set in 2015 after her marriage to Obasi had already ended. She maintained that she had no interest in acting at the time and dismissed suggestions that her relationship with Yul began while she was still married.
The actress expressed shock that Obasi continues to make accusations against her despite, according to her, having done nothing wrong to him.
“It is shocking that a man I have done nothing wrong against continues to tell lies about me,” she said.
Judy also challenged claims made by Obasi regarding their children, accusing him of contradicting himself. According to her, while he claimed during the podcast that he does not know the whereabouts of the children, he simultaneously called on Yul Edochie to release them.
She further alleged that Obasi had been influenced by individuals seeking to tarnish her reputation, saying, “I know you have been bought over to come and destroy my name.”
The actress insisted that she has never prevented her ex-husband from seeing their children and claimed that his visits were largely intended to showcase his new wife to her family.
Warning that she would seek legal redress, Judy stated that all allegations made against her would have to be defended in court.

Speaking in a video shared on social media on Sunday, August 2, 2026, Peller said he wants a more private atmosphere for the church wedding after his experience at the traditional ceremony.
According to him, there were more bloggers than invited guests at the traditional wedding, with some people allegedly buying aso-ebi just to gain access to the event and record videos.
“My white wedding is on August 8. I don’t know who brought those bloggers to my wedding. I don’t know how bloggers will be more than the guests. Some people bought aso-ebi just to come and record us. I want only 80 to 100 people at my white wedding,” he said.
Peller said the white wedding would be an intimate event with only 80 to 100 guests.
He also claimed that some people who attended the traditional wedding appeared to be more interested in creating content than celebrating with them.

“Anyway, the traditional wedding was a success,” he said.
Nigerian artist Cynthia Ikponmwenosa Morgan, popularly known as Cynthia Morgan, has called out her former record label boss, Jude Okoye, describing herself as a living witness to what he is capable of.
The dancehall and rap artist, while speaking up via her Instagram page, fueled the heat between the Okoye brothers, claiming that Jude has the power to make the truth disappear.
Morgan also claimed she is a living witness to some of the things Jude Okoye is being accused of by Peter.
”If there is one thing I know about judeengees. I know for a fact that he can make the truth disappear either in front or behind the cameras. I am a living witness of his. So our only hope of getting the truth this time is the judiciary.
“So help them God wickedness. But the difference this time is he came with chats and emails. You see how he quickly said Peter is crashing out because he is going down. That is how toxic and divisive he is. In a real sense, even if I don’t listen to secular music anymore, I saw Peter trending with his new song recently. Jude is not a good human being,” she stated
