Popular Nollywood director and producer, Tchidi Chikere, has reacted to rumours surrounding his recently dissolved nine-year-old marriage with ex-wife Sophia.
There had been unconfirmed reports the director has impregnated a Nollywood actress, Nuella Njubigbo. Several media reports claimed he’s currently living with said actress, and is also planning to tie the knot with her by the end of the year.
But a statement released by the movie director’s publicist described the reports as ‘at best laughable and absolutely untrue’.
It goes on to state that: ‘Nobody is pregnant for our client. We couldn’t fathom that reporters who delight in fabricating falsehood in the name of gossip would go through this ridiculous and laughable route‘.
‘Pregnancy is not something that can be hidden, and according to our findings, the said actress is presently on location with actor, Nkem Owoh in Enugu. Those who care to know the truth and are not interested in propaganda can go find out the true state of her ‘pregnancy.’ This is one accusation, given time, would prove true or false‘, it says.
The statement also said Mr Chikere has no impending wedding plans.
