After years of swirling rumours and repeated misinformation, former Miss Nigeria 2013, Ezinne Akudo, has finally come forward to shut down long-standing claims linking her romantically to Nigerian footballer Emmanuel Emenike. And her response? Absolutely jaw-dropping!
In a recent interview, the lawyer and beauty queen confidently cleared the air, saying, “I’ve never been married. I’ve never even met him.” She went on to reveal that while she had attended Emenike’s wedding, it was only because she knew his wife personally — not because she was ever romantically involved with him.
The rumour, which has trended on and off for years, falsely claimed that Emenike divorced a former Miss Nigeria before marrying another woman. Ezinne made it crystal clear: “I was never that woman.”
Shockingly, she admitted she initially ignored the gossip, thinking it would fade away. Instead, it became widely believed — even appearing as fact in online searches. “If you Google it, it’s there like a confirmed truth,” she said. “But it’s all false.”
With a sigh, she wrapped up her revelation with a relatable jab: “I fear who no fear media.”
