Ilebaye Denies Soliciting Funds Hours After Winning N120m Grand Prize
BIG Brother Naija All Stars winner, Ilebaye Odiniya, says her social media post instructing fans on how to donate to her through the right was not to solicit funds.
Instead, the Big Brother former Housemate said the intention was to prevent her fans from falling victim to scammers.
Ilebaye has been under heavy criticism after she made the post barely 24 hours after winning the N120 million grand prize of the BBNaija All Stars show.
The post read “We’ve received information about fans planning to send gifts or contributions. Please refrain from sending money to any account that isn’t officially posted on Ilebaye’s verified accounts. For gifts, please send an email. The only accessible account is the Baye Tribe account (9608176782 – Providus). We won’t be responsible for any misappropriation of funds. Thank you.”
The post sparked mixed reactions, with many slamming the reality star for “soliciting for more funds so early after winning N120m million.”
