Following the current controversy involving her suspension from the movie industry, Nkechi Blessing swallowed her pride and openly apologized to veteran actor Jide Kosoko and the Nollywood Yoruba association, TAMPAN.
Remember that Nkechi cursed Jide Kosoko on Instagram following a viral video of him and a few others telling movie producers not to work with Nkechi and Iyabo due to their suspension from the industry.
God will work against the veteran's generation, according to the 32-year-old, and he will be disgraced.
Nkechi apologized for all she stated in a recent Instagram post, saying she was disrespectful to Jide Kosoko and TAMPAN.
Despite this, the controversial actress stated that she is not sorry for speaking out against child molestation, which she claims is what sparked the dispute.
“The last couple of days has been of mixed feelings, anger, concern, disbelief, shock, and confusion. I did not get why TAMPAN directed their members not to work with me because there is nowhere that I spoke against TAMPAN, respected elders and colleagues who are their members.
The only thing I have done is to speak against the culture of rape, pedophilia attitude and stood against Legemiami who tactically gave support to a man who has been alleged to sexually harass a minor…i will never be friends with those who are friendly towards assault,sexual harassment and molestion of any kind..
I had to speak against this culture because this minor needs to be protected and this is not just about the minor in particular, it’s about the minors all over the world especially minors in the Nigerian space.
For so long a time many people do not see what the big deal is about sexual harassment, rape and assault on women generally and the sickening trend now are those men who seek pleasure in assaulting minors sexually.
No reasonable person should keep quiet upon hearing about the assault of a minor. As much as we should seek the truth, our first reaction should be to protect the minor and perpetuate awareness against sexual assault of minors, that was what I did and I would be more than glad to do that again
I have nothing but love and respect for TAMPAN, its members, and the elders.
I acknowledge the fact that my response to Daddy Jide Kosoko’s threat against my career was disrespectful, for that, I sincerely apologize to him and I say I am sorry Sir.. as I was driven by my emotions but I will never be sorry for standing against rape, sexual assault and molestation of minors” she wrote.
