BBNaija All Stars winner Ilebaye has finally spoken out after receiving criticism for her tweet asking for donations from fans after winning the N120m grand prize.
Recall that Ilebaye had shared her account information for donations from admirers on her X profile.
She had alerted people about a popular fraud, saying that some dishonest individuals were attempting to extort money from her followers while posing as her.
Ilebaye told all of her admirers who wanted to donate to send money there instead by posting her account number on her official handle in order to avoid this.
Netizens apparently misread her post in response, suggesting that she was still trying to collect N120M from admirers despite having already received N120M.
Addressing the misconceptions, Ilebaye in a new tweet noted that her previous tweet was only to quash fraudulent activities perpetrated by some individuals, adding that she never solicited funds.
She wrote:
“This tweet was solely to avoid people who WANT to gift falling into the hands of scammers.
We didn’t solicit for funds, we only highlighted the account we have access to.
Too many fake account numbers are circulating and we will not be held accountable for any misappropriation.”
