Bishop Faith Benson Idahosa’s wife Laurie Idahosa has apologised to Nollywood veteran Pete Edochie over her comments on his Mother’s Day message to women.
Her apology was contained in a video she shared on Instagram on Wednesday.
She said in the video: “Good evening, I’m Pastor Laurie Idahosa and I will like to render a sincere apology to Chief Pete Edochie and his family for the comment that I made on the Linda Ikeji’s post on Instagram. It was never intended to cause you any embarrassment or harm.
“In fact, when I realised that it will be interpreted differently from what I intended to communicate, I quickly deleted the post. Unfortunately it was screen-grabbed and it became a trending topic.
“I want to wish you well sir and wish your family well. My sincere apologies for any embarrassment I may have caused by my comment. God bless you.”
Pete Edochie in his Mother’s Day message had narrated how his 40-year-old father had married his 15-year-old mother, and that the woman remained shy towards him even after birthing 10 children.
Reacting, Mrs Idahosa criticised the actor, saying his mother was not shy, but was a victim of rape and child marriage.
