Not too long ago, Nollywood actress Kate Henshaw, and comedian Akpororo were embroiled in a social media battle as Kate accused the Airtel ambassador of using her name and image to promote his forthcoming show, Akpororo vs Akpororo, without first seeking confirmation from her.
Akpororo seeking to quell the PR havoc that seemed to be brewing, quickly took to social media to issue a public apology to the actress. He wrote, “Good evening ma, before anything else I just want to say I am very sorry ma for the misunderstanding. I am so sorry for not following up after our last conversation about my show when you were out of the country the other day. I will never disrespect you or even take you for granted for any reason, I respect you so much ma, please pardon me ma. Thanks and God bless you ma,” he wrote.
Speaking to Punch newspapers’ Sunday Scoop in a telephone conversation, Kate via her manager, Funke Kuti, said she has forgiven Akpororo and will attend his show .
According to Funke
Kuti, Kate is a big sister to Akpororo, so she has forgiven him. “The
apology has been accepted. It was a misunderstanding. She has forgiven
him. She will be at the show. One thing Kate does is, she supports and
encourage up-and-coming entertainers. She is a big sister to him.”
