Nigerian actress Eniola Badmus has threatened legal action against an X (formerly Twitter) user over allegations linking her to an alleged exploitation network, declaring that she will not overlook the accusation.
The controversy erupted after a post by a user identified as @Femzydr1 accused the actress of acting as an intermediary between young women and influential figures in the entertainment and political space.
The unverified claim alleged that she connected girls to movie directors, executives and politicians, and suggested that she gained access to political circles through such networks.
“Popular Yoruba Actress Eniola Badmus is reportedly a private pimp in Nigeria and in the movie industry, linking young girls up with top directors, movie executives, and Nigerian politicians. She surely gained entry into the political scene through this network, and many young girls have been exploited & used for different purposes by politicians through her connections”, the tweet says.
The allegation quickly circulated on the social media platform, drawing mixed reactions from users.
While some demanded evidence to support the serious claims, others reacted with disbelief and humour as the post gained traction.
Badmus responded directly through her verified X account, dismissing the accusation as false and accusing the poster of seeking attention.
She stated that the matter would not be ignored and warned that authorities would be involved.
“This is the attention you’ve been craving for, so let’s get into it… this is a false accusation and authorities will step in,” she wrote.
She followed up with a firm warning: “There is no forgiveness in this zone.”
