Popular US trained journalist, Kemi Olunloyo, has castigated her father, a former governor of Oyo State, Victor Omololu Olunloyo, for apologizing to ace actor, Jide Kosoko after she said he uses his late wives for rituals.
Recall that the ‘Snitch Lady’ had stated that there was more to the death of wives of the actor following the death of his third wife, Henrietta, alleging that the women may have been used for ritual by the actor.
She said the actor should be investigated, saying the coincidence was not ordinary. .
But in a recent interview, Kosoko clearly stated that he did not use his late wives for rituals as claimed by Ms. Olunloyo.
He said, “…But I appreciate her father who called me and apologised. He said some other things that I may not be able to share with the public. .
In her reaction, Madame KOO took to her Twitter handle @HNNAfrica to lambaste her father, calling him a moron.
She wrote: “My father Victor Omololu Olunloyo being the moron that he is reaching out to celebrities to “apologize” for what I write on social media got side-kicked this time.
“The one thing about my father is that he hasn’t realized that journalism and social media criticism is MY WORK AND JOB!
“Many people don’t know but my father is a hater of media since we were young. He is a big fan of media censorship and even shut down a TV and |Radio station when he was Oyo state Governor for 90 days. BCOS radio and TV were shut down for 30 days for staff yapping and criticizing President Shagari on the air.
“The governor could not survive a thick skin. Ha! Ha! Then one day he suddenly became a Nigerian Tribune Contributing Columnist and he later became a media whore speaking to all media at any opportunity he got. During his PDP days, he was made the PR person for the Oyo PDP for the 2011 election which Akala lost.
“He even blamed that on Akala “not listening to him.” Daddy pls STFU and stay out of my journalism work. Journalists are supposed to report on everyone.
“Below is how Jide Kosoko stylishly told him that I had the right to my opinion. In another publication, Kosoko stated that many people are saying the same thing “behind him” and only Kemi said her out so he’s not worried.
“Kosoko said that Olunloyo only spoke her mind and she had a right to air her opinion. He further said that it was a closed chapter because her father called him to apologize for his daughter’s utterance.
“I do not want to go to Kemi Olunloyo’s issue because the chapter is closed. I do not want to dwell much on it because when people approached me and informed me of what she was saying, I said she was entitled to her opinion. She was voicing out, what about those that would not say anything but in their mind, they would say that I have lost about three wives?
“They are only being human but the truth is that for Olunloyo, that is her opinion no matter how hurt I might have been with her utterances. By my nature, there was nothing I could do. But I appreciate her father who called me and apologised. He said some other things that I may not be able to share with the public.
“When she said all those things, I really did not reply because it is not in my nature and that time, I was mourning so her case was secondary. I am still mourning so there are very little things I want to say,” she added.
