Battered Actor Ayo Badmus, Oshodi/Isolo LG Boss reacts...

Oshodi/Isolo LG Boss, Hon Bolaji Ariyoh                         Battered actor Ayo Badmus

Some days ago, popular actor, Ayo Badmus, alleged that he was battered by thugs guarding the Chairman of Oshodi L.G.A, Hon Bolaji Ariyoh. (If you missed it, read it here). Well, the LG boss, via his media people, are denying they had anything to do with the beating. They claim the actor had a falling out with some men at the event, and it had nothing to do with them.

A press statement from the office of the Oshodi/Isolo Local Government boss below...

The much spread rumor and campaign of calumny issued by a Nollywood actor, AYO BADMUS, on his alleged humiliation and beating, ordered by the OSHODI/ISOLO LOCAL GOVERNMENT Chairman is nothing but a complete ruse fabricated to damage the image of the Honorable Chairman and create some frivolous attention and gain unnecessary sympathy for himself.

More when you continue...

The visionary and hardworking Oshodi/Isolo Chairman is a core fan of our own very Nollywood stars, someone who will never stop to support and promote our culture both at the local and International Level. It is so regrettable to imagine how cheap the actor is going around, spreading fake rumors and claiming to have been badly beaten by some faceless thugs, as ordered by the Chairman's elder brother, a quiet, reserved and friendly fellow at the Chairman's Sallah celebration that attracted the presence of notable Nigerians like GBENGA ADEYINKA 1st and some others who witnessed the occasion and could attest to this truth. We however found it necessary to address the issue and correct whatever ill impression that would have registered in peoples mind and confirming the story as untrue and unfounded.
