Famous Nigerian actress Dakore Egbuson-Akande has strongly refuted claims that she had an affair with Senate President Godswill Akpabio. The allegations surfaced in a viral report on Sunday, which included Dakore among several female celebrities purported to be Akpabio’s ‘side chicks.’

On Monday, Dakore took to her official Instagram page to deny these accusations, asserting that she had never met Akpabio. She wrote, “I saw text messages and calls this morning, alerting me to a malicious lie from the pit of hell. I must say that I’m very disappointed, shocked, and appalled. And I want to categorically state that I have never met the Senate president.

“I have not had any cause to be in the same room with him, not to talk of being his side chick. I’m happily married with two beautiful children. So for 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 and I am ready for any legal action because, at this point, you have messed with the wrong person. I keep to myself, 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’m not going to accept it or going to be quiet about it. I want to put it out there. Anyone who can provide video or audio evidence that I have been with this man, I would give you N5 million right now.”

Dakore’s firm stance and her willingness to take legal action underscore her determination to protect her reputation against these unfounded allegations.
