We will continue to engage with all parties involved and corporate with the authorities as they carry out their investigation.

Prior to the release of Yinka Ash’s statement, Caroline Danjuma had insulted him for being rude and unbothered about the whole situation, claiming he has a track record of being uncouth towards women.
Caroline Hutchings and Shan George’s encounter with Ashluxe isn’t the first drama that the brand has been associated with in recent times.
Some weeks back, Yinka Ash had personally called out singer Lyta publicly for wearing a fake version of his brand.
He faced a lot of backlash for calling Lyta out, with some netizens even suggesting that he should’ve sent him the original product.
Lyta’s response to the whole situation was simply hilarious, as he merged the whole drama into the lyrics of his new song, citing how he was called out for wearing a fake brand.
Ashluxe is one of the biggest brands in Nigeria, especially Lagos State, with the likes of Yhemolee and Davido frequently wearing it.
