Tonto Dikeh Reacts As NCPC Denies Appointing Her As Peace Ambassador

Tonto Dikeh says she won't be challenging the commission's sudden change of stance on her appointment.

Nigerian actress Tonto Dikeh has reacted to the statement released by the Nigeria Christian Pilgrims Commission denying the report that she was made an ambassador.

The actress claimed she was appointed an ambassador by the commission.

In a post shared via her Instagram page on Saturday, February 27, 2021, the movie star said she did not lie about the appointment.

"My name is King Tonto Dikeh. Best believe I will never lie on any human being talk more of a commission of the federation. I can only simply say this is life and we all know what can go wrong in 1 sec," she wrote.

"Coming from a place of leadership and peace, I won't fight this. But I will walk away with my head held high and grow above it, thanks."

The movie star's response came after the commission came out to deny appointing her as an ambassador.
