“Thank you so much, ma, @lola_idije1959, for speaking the truth on this matter. Thank you to everyone who reached out with concern.
“Yeah! I needed to speak up for myself, my children, unborn children, husband, in-laws, families, and my true fans. As they say, the internet never forgets, I don’t want to be remembered for something that does not define me at all.
I come first in all of this, my sanity matters. Being bullied is not healthy. I had to speak out, especially after seeing my daughter’s comment on Gistlover, defending me. That was the breaking point for me. I can’t remain silent seeing my child in that state, that is something she would never have done under normal circumstances. For her to do that. I know it’s time for me to save their faces.
That Live video was to set the record straight once and for all. I’ve spoken my truth, and that gives me peace.
Thank you all for your love. God bless you all”.
