Story curled from National life.
Sometimes,I pity Nigerian celebrities. To imagine that they cannot live their lives without being rumoured about! For whatever they do or fail to do, keke must ke. Na wa oh. I’m sure they must sometimes get tired of the perusing lens of the paparazzi and the probing questions of the reporters. Maybe that explains how Dakore Egbuson responded to questions about the absence of her boyfriend, Olumide Akande, at the just concluded Hip-Hop World Awards in Abuja.
Dakore, who stormed last year’s version of the awards with
Olumide as her handbag, surprisingly came alone this year.
Expectedly, this drew glances and murmuring. Soon, rumours
started flying on why Olumide, Harry Akande’s son, refused to
attend the award with Dakore. While some said he is outside the
country on a business trip, others spoke of a quarrel between
the two love-birds. There were so many versions of the same
story anyway.
Trust pen-pushers, some reporters decided to ask her the
question and pronto, they cornered her and fired the salvo at
her. Apparently caught unawares, Dakore lashed back asking if
she must go everywhere with Olumide. She asked the reporters
what their business is with her relationship and capped it with
a warning that she be left alone to live her life.
Uhmn! I saw it all happen. And unlike her detractors who
giggled happily at her seeming discomfiture that day, I prayed
silently to God to spare this beautiful lady who has brought so
much laughter to many lips, a heart break this year. I know God
will do what he has to do; it is just that I cannot stop
worrying over what our sisters go through when a beautiful
session like this ends abruptly. God, I still dey pray.
