Chioma Ikokwu, a socialite and hair tycoon, has highlighted her issue with Toyin Lawani, a renowned stylist and fashion designer.
As you may recall, Chioma Ikokwu was hauled by Toyin Lawani for making untrue accusations against her.
The Real Housewives of Lagos co-star and mother of one who insulted Laura Ikeji's son was viciously called out on Twitter.
The cast members of the television program visited Laura Ikeji's runway show, and Toyin, who was seated next to Chioma, showed her something on her phone. Sadly, Chioma said Toyin compared her kid Tenor to Laura's son.
Toyin Lawani accused Chioma and the show's producers of portraying her incorrectly on her Instagram page.
Chioma discussed her arguments with her fellow roommates in an interview with Chude Jideonwo. She stated that due to her personality, she felt quite ashamed of their arguments.
Since Chioma does not have a Twitter account, she wasn't aware of her co-stars' shading tweets, Chioma claimed.
According to Chioma, she doesn't want to be known as someone who appears on TV fighting, arguing, or having a sharper tongue because it is not the legacy she wants to leave behind.
She finds it objectionable that the production crew promoted a derogatory message.
She continued by saying that she and her fellow actors might have done more inspiring and uplifting things.
She said;
“I think it’s extremely embarrassing, you know for me it’s just embarrassing because the sort of person I am, the family I come from, this is not something that I sort of engage in. The last time I was on Twitter was when I was 11 because I worked in a law firm and had desk job but after that I never really went back in Twitter because I just felt it was such a violent space to be in. So seeing all of that was sort of new to me, seeing all of the housewives going back and forth. I’m just like, all of this could be avoided. Sometimes when I look back, I’m just like, what did we really teach young girls. Everyone comes and is like you’re so inspiring and I know so much more that I could have offered to this situation to actually genuinely inspire people to get them to want to do better, be better. I don’t want to be perceived as somebody that is coming on TV fighting or engaging in arguments or whose mouth is sharper like that’s not the legacy that I want to live. Yes of course, they’ve used some of my taglines as TimTok videos. It’s cute but like I was even saying this morning that I don’t want the tagline to be insults, I want it to be positive things that you can sort of use to empower or better yourselves. And I don’t really like the fact that they pushed the negativity. I felt like even with production and I have to say this that at the end of the day. Ofcourse drama sells with reality TV but it could have been mixed a little bit more. We could have done more positive or empowering stuff”.
Reports that Chioma Ikokwu had criticized Toyin Lawani's business were refuted.
She further said,
“At no point did I ever insult Toyin’s business ever. If anything, I said you’re creative, you’re very talented, so many times throughout the season I’d be like you’re even too good for Nigeria, Nigeria doesn’t deserve you. I’ll hail get, I’ll encourage her, anybody can bear witness to that. There was never a time I’ll ever insult her business”.
Chioma Ikokwu also disclosed that Iyabo Ojo and she got into a fight, but the scene was edited during production.
