- Diiadem, a Nigerian actress, shared a meltdown on Instagram after being attributed to Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for her brand’s success.
- Diiadem acknowledged that she struggles to ignore false information online and that a recent outburst hurt her deeply.
- Recall in February, Diiadem a beauty influencer publicly cried after a blogger claimed her business was financed by the Lagos State Governor, debunked claims, offered a ₦5 million bounty, and urged social media users to unmask the blogger.
Diiadem recently appeared as a guest on Hawa Magaji’s Who’s In My House show, and she shared her meltdown on Instagram after a social media user linked her brand’s success to Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
“I have a daughter that looks up to me and I don’t want her to grow up and see horrible news about her mum, so it’s really heartbreaking. That’s why when I see terrible lies being told about me I come out to debunk it because that is not me, so I would not let anyone whether faceless or not dictate who I am to me,” said the entrepreneur.
She emphasized that in some cases, she is unable to ignore people who propagate false information about her online, and that the recent outburst has deeply affected her.
“Sometimes I do not ignore everything. I come out to let people know that I am not who they paint me to be. Recently I had a bad outburst online and I was really down because I had just achieved something amazing for myself and my brand and it felt like an attack. I just had to come out because it was very painful because when you work so hard for every single penny you own and someone somewhere just tried to attribute all that hard work to someone else,” she explained.
In February, the beauty influencer had a public meltdown and cried after a blogger alleged that her business was funded by the Governor of Lagos State. In the widely shared video, she squashed the claims in tears, swearing that she accomplished all of her achievements on her own. She offered a ₦5 million prize and asked social media users to reveal the blogger’s identity.
