Actress Dakore reacts to allegation of illicit affair with Akpabio

Actress Dakore Egbuson-Akande has denied accusations by a Nigerian blog that she is romantically involved with Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

Recall that the blog alleged earlier that the actress, alongside other celebrities like hair vendor Wanneka, Hilda Baci, Ini Edo, Nancy Isime, and Shontel Nnadi are all dating Akpabio to finance their lavish lifestyle.

Reacting to the accusation on Monday, the actress vowed to take legal action against the blog.

Dakore who expressed her disappointment and anger over the claims, explained that she had just arrived in the US for a summer vacation, which had kept her offline.

She stated that she started receiving numerous calls alerting her to what she described as “a very wicked lie.”

“I must say I am very disappointed, I am very shocked, I am appalled, and I want to categorically state that I have never ever in my life met the Senate President.

“I have not had any cause to see him or to be in the same room with him, not to talk of being one of his ‘side chics’.

“Hello, I am married, happily married, I have two beautiful children and I have always been above board in my dealings with everyone.

“So for a blogger, a jobless wicked blogger to decide to put my name amongst women who have been with this man is totally wicked and totally unfounded, it is a lie from the pit of hell,” she said.
