Okoye, who was arrested for making defamatory statements against actress Eniola Badmus, confessed that she defamed the actress because a friend, Fortune Ibe, promised to pay her N200,000.

In a video clip shared online, Nwakaego was seen apologizing for her actions.

According to her, she needed the money to pay her house rent.

What happened was that a friend of mine, Fortune Ibe, said if I should come out and talk about Mrs Eniola Badmus, he was going to send me N200k because I told him about my rent, She said

“That was what prompted the video. I am so sorry; I just did that because I was desperate to pay my house rent. I just did it because of the money.”
