The management team of media personality Chinudu Ani Emmanuel, also known as Nedu, has responded to actress Yvonne Jegede’s recent criticism of the OAP and ‘The Honest Bunch’ podcast.
Recall that the mother of one had recently criticized Nedu for allegedly mocking her apology to Yul Edochie’s first wife after she endorsed Edochie’s second marriage during her appearance on ‘The Honest Bunch’ podcast, which Nedu co-hosts.
In an Instagram post shared on the 13th of June, 2024, the actress called Nedu a “narcissistic and toxic” man who reportedly harbors animosity towards women.
However, in a statement shared on Instagram by Nedu, his management urged the role interpreter to refrain from further defaming him, emphasizing that she was not coerced into making any statements on the podcast.
The statement partly read, “We would like to make it clear that Yvonne Jegede was not pressured to make any statements on the podcast, and that neither Nedu nor the producers of The Honest Bunch, nor Glitch Africa Studio, takes any responsibility for personal thoughts and positions shared by Yvonne Jegede.
“We would also like to state clearly that Yvonne Jegede appeared on The Honest Bunch as part of her publicity drive for her upcoming movie. While this was a paid appearance, it does not in any way afford Yvonne Jegede the right to defame or slander Nedu or the producers of The Honest Bunch.”
