The story I posted yesterday
about an incident that occurred on Sunday between actress Mercy Aigbe and her
husband, which was culled from Stella Dimoko Korkus has raised as much hell, as The TV channel
that hosted Mercy yesterday, V-Channel, has released a statement denying any
such incident occurred. See the statement below.
Re-Actress, Mercy Aigbe Disgraced by Her
Husband
The above subject matter refers.
After reading the latest lie from Stella
Dimoko, one can only conclude that the blogger is on a poorly orchestrated
vendetta against Mercy Aigbe-Gentry, a successful actress, wife and mother. It
is also easy to deduce from the incoherent and watery 'report' that Mrs Dimoko
has no idea what journalism or blogging is all about because the story comes
across as fiction from a puerile, retrogressive and unproductive mind.
More after the cut.......
Stella fictitiously and
wickedly averred in her report that Mr. Lanre Gentry, husband of frontline
Yoruba actress, Mercy Aigbe pummelled her after finding her in a night gown
inside a hotel room. This is nothing but a figment of Stella’s myopic and infantile
imagination. While not joining issues with a blogger who knows zilch about the
tenets of journalism considering her antecedents, we would summarise what
happened yesterday for the sake of clarity and Mrs Gentry's legion of
discerning fans.
Indeed, Mercy was hosted by
indigenous television station on Startimes, Odua Mounmarowan, on Sunday
evening. She came to the event with her friends, younger sister and Faith
Irabor, a journalist in her car. However, Mr. Gentry came in from his hotel in
Oregun, Lagos. The event was well-attended by movie and media personalities.
Immediately after the event, Mercy went to the changing room allotted to her in
company of her husband and Faith Irabor. On getting to the car park, however,
Mercy’s car didn’t start; so she joined her husband with her friends and left
for Oregun, her husband's hotel.
In all of these, one can’t
get where Stella got her concocted report from. Mr Gentry left the venue happy
as the event was successful and without hiccups.
As at the time the couple
left, the musician specially invited to perform, Sunny Melody was still
performing.
We are therefore confused as
to where Mrs Dimoko got her story from? The moon, perhaps. Why does Mrs Dimoko
keep publishing lies all in the name of journalism? Is she not happy that a
younger woman, Mercy, has a flourishing career as an actor and producer and
also enjoys domestic felicity? Mrs Dimoko, these are things God can do for you
too if you stopped destroying homes and people.
Having said these, we
challenge Mrs Dimoko to furnish the public with evidence of Gentry’s anger and
battery, or Mercy leaving in a nightgown. We strongly believe that those who
mean well for journalism should not watch people like this blogger drag the
noble profession through the mud.
God help us all
