Few days after she was slammed with an indefinite suspension by the leadership of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN, for tarnishing the image of the association, ace Actress, Halima Abubakar, recanted the adultery allegation she raised against a popular clergy, Apostle Johnson Suleman.

Halima had on several occasions, dragged the name of the clergy to the mud, alleging that he dumped her, despite many intimate moments they had together.

The actress, who was terribly sick at a time, allegedly sponsored several defamatory publications against the Edo-born clergy whom she alleged had also had intimate affairs with other prominent actresses.

A High Court of the Federal Capital Territory had since slammed damages against Halima for defaming the preacher.

Meanwhile, years after her allegations came to light, the actress has come out to apologise, revealing that she told lies against the clergy/founder of Omega Fire Ministry.

“I admit that I made false allegations against you; and also regret my actions and damage I caused to you, your wife, Dr. Mrs. Lizzy Suleman, your family, and the leaders of Omega Fire Ministry.”

“I am truly sorry for all the hurts and distress I caused you, your family and your ministry. Thank you very much and may heaven calm your heart. God bless you Sir,” the actress added in the personal letter of apology she addressed to the Apostle.

Nigerian singer and songwriter, Inetimi Alfred Odom popularly known as Timaya, said he has been an original right from time and does not have anything to hide.

The singer in a chat with Channels Television said what people say about him doesn’t itch him as he sees people’s thoughts about him like ‘fried eggs and bread’.

“How somebody sees me doesn’t bother me. I’ve gone past those things. What you think or how you think are like fried eggs and bread,” he said.

Timaya, reflecting on his journey thus far, noted that the only thing that has changed about him is the money he has now. Looking at how far he has evolved from a plantain seller to a notable voice in the music industry, the singer says he looks better than where he is coming from.

“I’m not doing anything bad. I’m original. I’ve been like this all my life. The only thing I know that people can say is that I’m a very blunt guy, I speak my mind and I’m not afraid of anybody… I’m not a fraudster, I don’t have anything to hide,” he said.

“It is very difficult when you are trying to live a life that you are not. The only thing that has changed is the money that I have now. From a plantain boy, now I look better not like I was that bad but I was bad.”

He also talked about his ninth album, Gladiator, and the events that inspired the album’s name.
