"People have said so many things about me, but the one that makes me laugh the most is this so-called ‘sugar daddy’ story. Every time I buy a car, build a house, or enjoy my success, some people rush to say, ‘Oh, a man must have bought it for her.’ It’s funny how they never believe a woman can work hard and make it on her own.
I have worked tirelessly in Nollywood for years. I shoot movies back-to-back, I endorse big brands, and I invest my money wisely. Everything I own—my cars, my house, my lifestyle—I worked for it with my sweat. But no, instead of giving me my credit, they say a mysterious man is funding me.
Let me say it loud and clear: I do not have a sugar daddy! Nobody is behind my success except God, my talent, and my hard work. People need to stop spreading lies and start giving women the respect they deserve.
I am proud of everything I have achieved, and I will keep rising—whether they like it or not!"
