Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing has issued a public apology to Imisi Ayanwale, winner of Big Brother Naija Season 10.
The reality TV star cum Nollywood actress threw a lavish birthday party attended by many celebrities, including Do2dtun, Bisola Aiyeola, Kiekie, Nkechi Blessing, Brodashaggi, BBNaija Kola, Mide, Mitchy, Isabella, Kayvee, and many others.
During a question-and-answer session at the birthday party, Nkechi asked Imisi, who has been at loggerheads with her mother for a long time, if she would ever forgive and reconcile with her.
However, Nkechi Blessing’s question generated mixed reactions online, with some netizens attacking her.
Responding to the massive online backlash, Nkechi, in a video on her Instagram page, tendered a heartfelt apology to the reality star and her fans.
According to the movie star, the question was never intended or meant to chase clout, adding that anyone who finds the question offensive should forgive her.
She said, “I sincerely want to apologise to anybody who got offended by the question I asked Imisi a couple of hours ago at her party. If you find my question offensive, I am sorry. Find a place in your heart to forgive me. Whoever is dragging me, fighting me, abusing me, please don’t be offended.”
The loggerheads began when Imisi’s mother posted videos online, saying she had been abandoned and still lived in poor conditions despite Imisi’s N150 million win.
The videos, released on November 16, showed her mother expressing frustration and insisting she would not plead for help.
In her response shared on her Instagram page, Imisi stated that her mother was not involved in her life before her BBNaija victory, saying that long periods would pass without any contact.
She said the sudden public outburst shocked her because the relationship had always been strained.
Imisi explained that she has supported her mother over the years and had sent money even in the days leading up to the controversy.
She added that she cannot use her prize money for personal comfort of one person since many family members now depend on her.
