The controversy began after popular gossip blogger Gistlover spread the news that Nengi had secretly welcomed a child fathered by a married Governor in Nigeria with four wives. The news quickly gained traction online around Nigeria, prompting reactions from fans and the general public.
However, Nengi firmly refuted the allegations, emphasizing that the rumors not only target her but also affect those she deeply respects.
“I’ve chosen to speak because this isn’t just an attack on me; it involves people I hold in the highest regard, and I won’t allow a beautiful, personal part of my life to be turned into something ugly,” she added.
