Nollywood actor, Adeniyi Johnson, has cleared the air over a viral video depicting himself with a fan.
The tape which created concerns on the internet on Monday saw Johnson in a vehicle with a woman who sat close to him for photographs.
According to the actor, the woman in issue was a “overzealous” fan who begged for a photo as he was racing on a scene. In order to save time, he urged her to enter his vehicle where she took the video.
“I will not pretend like nothing happened today, and this is not to debunk anything as no one debunks what never happened or what they didn’t do!!!,” he posted through his Instagram profile on Monday.
“The lady in question is an overzealous fan who was excited to meet me and politely asked to take a picture. I was driving out when she met me and as such couldn’t come down because I was rushing to another set.”
The actor further voiced his concern that the woman had mischievously released the video with bogus captions on her own social media profiles which caused people to assume they were in a relationship.
“I guess she posted on her WhatsApp status with the hideous caption to trend. Or, someone on her contact out of hatred for her picked the video did the write up and made it trend!!! I’ll get to the root of this promise!!!
“The lady in question I dare you to come out and talk if I know you beyond the video I dare you,” he continued.
Adeniyi also apologised to his wife and fellow colleague, Oluwaseyi Edun, for what his “free spirit and playfulness” had cost their marriage.
He said, “This my write up is first to apologise to my darling wife @i_am_shai for causing this kind of buzz you know I’ll do anything in me to avoid. This is the least of what you deserve to be candid you do not deserve it!!!
“Dear Ashabi, I am deeply sorry for what my free spirit and playfulness has cost us today. Yes I am a king and you are my one and only Olori. This is coming from the deepest part of me.
“I apologise to my fans for the misconception and plead with you guys to remain calm as I am working on getting to the bottom of this. Thanks to those that reached out, I appreciate And those I couldn’t attend to or pick their calls Emabinu. Thank you all I love you guys and will keep working on being a better person. Peace.”
