A TikTok user, Ego Okoye, who was arrested for making defamatory statements against actress Eniola Badmus, has said she defamed the actress because a friend, Fortune Ibe, promised to pay her N200,000.
Seen in a video clip apologizing for her actions, Okoye said she needed the money to pay her house rent, adding that desperation pushed her into acting in such a manner.
Okoye said, “What happened was that a friend of mine, Fortune Ibe, said if I should come out and talk about Mrs. Eniola Badmus, he was going to send me N200k because I told him about my rent.
“That was what prompted the video. I am so sorry; I just did that because I was desperate to pay my house rent. I just did it because of the money.”
