Veteran Nollywood actress, Ini Edo has responded to rumors suggesting that she had a romantic relationship with Josh Wade, Empress Njamah’s ex-lover and notorious scammer and blackmailer.
Davies has been confirmed by the Liberian police as a notorious scammer who targeted wealthy women, entered into romantic relationships with them, and swindled them of their fortunes. Reports have surfaced that, in addition to his known victim in Nigeria, Empress Njamah, he possessed intimate videos of about nine other female celebrities.
Amidst the drama, Instagram blogger Gistlover has also accused Ini Edo of having a relationship with Davies. To support this claim, the blogger shared a recording of a video call between Davies and Ini Edo as well as a snapshot of her passport that was allegedly found on his phone.
This accusation has garnered widespread attention, with many people criticising the actress. In response, Ini Edo has shared her side of the story. She stated that the alleged blackmailer had contacted her months ago, claiming to be producing a movie and requesting her participation. Edo further claimed that she ceased communication with him when he began making advances towards a romantic relationship.
She also stated that she has never met Davies, and regarding the passport photograph found on his phone, she sent it to him when he asked to meet and offered to book her flight. Speaking about the recorded video call, the actress asserted that it was an unsolicited call that she picked up to tell Davies to switch to audio and not call her on video.
She said in parts, “Just turning on my phone and I am been bombarded with lots of accusations. I don’t know how to do this but I have to do it cause I feel like, lots of times people throw things at me and I let it slide and people feel like it’s okay to keep doing it. I don’t know why people are dragging me into the web of lies. If I have to talk about this I have to be truthful.
