Speaking in Yoruba, the actor pleaded with Akindele to forgive him, emphasizing that it was never his intention to defame me.

“Funke Akindele gave me ₦190,000, not ₦90,000. Please help me beg Aunty Funke. The video was cut and joined, which led to the mistake. People only shared the part where I misspoke and not where I corrected myself. Please, forgive me. I don’t want to go to jail,” he pleaded.
