Miss Chidinma Okeke, the former Miss Anambra that was dethroned was put in the view of the world when her cucumber scandal stripped her of all royal and queening illusion.
The demeaning and incriminating tapes that were released few days to the end of her tenure as a beauty queen soiled her career and tainted her image to Nigerians. For obvious reasons, the cucumber fruit became more popular as people read more meaning to the consumption of the nutrient filled vegetable.
For Miss Okeke, that moment must have been the worst moment ever as she had her face plastered in every magazine with thousands of pervs watching the tape over and over. With the publicity the scandal got, it would have been hard for anyone to try and douse the flames of controversy burning from it.
Although the case started with her denial of the bawdy video with carnal contents, things transcended to a point where she was trapped between high walls and that led to her confession. The former beauty queen confessed to being blackmailed and given demeaning conditions in order for her to reign as a beauty queen.
The latest development is the fact that she will be testifying against one of her blackmailers in a Lagos court. This case is being made a high profile case in order to protect her already tarnished image. Here are 4 possible things that may happen to the former beauty queen after testifying against one of her blackmailers:
1. A chance for the world to re-evaluate the case There are some people who are unaware of the scandal. Reopening this case will make the tapes more popular and will cause them to check them out.
As it is, many believe she is not entirely free of guilt as she allowed greed to take over her soul. Some people also think she could have walked away from the deal as soon as she got to know about the T & C.
2. She may never be able to walk freely again Testifying in court against one of the blackmailers may put her in more trouble. Only heaven knows how many people are in the know of this. There may be more incriminating tapes that may bring her world down and mess up what is left of her integrity.
3. A chance for the old wound to fester From some of the reactions below, people are starting to let go of the incident. Testifying in court may bring her more pain than she ever bargained.
4. Condemnation Already, many Nigerians share the belief that she should be tried in court herself for being involved in an ‘ungodly’ act with another woman. The 14 years imprisonment judgement may end her case. Check out the reactions of Nigerians to the testimony that she will be giving in court:
