Open Letter To My One Million Followers With Love ❤️ . . Dear Followers, Appreciation Is A Must – Thank You, I Do Not Deserve Your Follower-ship, I Mean a Whole One Million. What Did I Do Right? That’s Besides The Point – Thank You , Thank You, Thank You. . . You Have Seen Me Through My Struggling Days, Barely Able To Put Colors Together To Make A Good Dress Sense , Yet You Still Followed Me. . . You Have Seen Me When I Lacked Confidence and Stuttered Throughout A Speech Yet You Still Followed Me . . You Have Seen Me When I Didn’t Quite Nail a Role Yet You Still Followed Me . . You Have Seen Me Being Lost and Evolving From Being Several People Yet You Still Followed Me . . The List Goes On and On, From Wanting the Part and not looking the Part . I Felt Every One Of This Emotions You Felt. It’s A Pleasure To Have Had This Ride With You Because This Girl is Not Perfect and She Didn’t Try To Fake Anyone of These Feelings . . Just Like A Fish Thrown On Land I Struggled For Survival. Of Course I Made Mistakes. Sometimes I Felt Beat And was Often Left Quite Shaken By Some Of The Judgmental Stance. I saw All the Nasty Comments, the vile words , and I also saw the encouragement too. I decided to ride on the encouragements instead as I worked more on myself. . Truth Is I Jumped On My Passion Of Becoming AN ACTRESS, What I Didn’t Know Is You Cant Do Acting Alone and Leave The Show – Show and Business. I focused more on the Business and ignored the show cos quite frankly I didn’t know how to do the show. This Calabar Girl didn’t grow up like that 🤷🏽‍♀️. I Got a Lot of Criticism, I Felt Broken Inside Because Deeply I Just Wanted To Act and I Couldn’t Care Less About The Fanfare but I Got to Realize That You Cant Be an Entertainment without Show Business. Gradually I started Warming Up To The Idea of Playing Dress Up For an Event, What I Couldn’t Wrap My Head Around is Dressing Up Just To Step Out Of My house cos Playing Dress Up Cost Money. Stubbornly I Carried On Without a Care Until Fans Started Recognizing me and Wanting To Take Pictures, When I Saw The Result of The Pictures Online I Realized That I Had To Pay attention To My Look When I Step Out. To be contd

On April 21, the Apaye star revealed an alleged plot to blackmail her by releasing fake nude photos of her.

Like media personality, Toke Makinwa and reality TV star, Tacha, who alleged similar threats, she chose to share the pictures herself, instead.
