Chioma Akpotha dares Georgina Onuoha to prove allegations

Actors Chioma Akpotha and Georgina Onuoha resumed their longstanding feud over the weekend. On election day, Nollywood actress Chioma Chukwuka-Apotha got many fans emotional after she raised the alarm about her life being in danger during the election. In a live video on her verified Instagram account, the actress screamed and shouted after being attacked by thugs who scattered ballot boxes at her polling unit and dispersed everyone.

Later reacting, US-based Georgina expressed minimal sympathy for her colleague, who she said was ‘‘shouting like a cow’’. She recalled that four years ago, when she posted evidence that the election was not free and fair, Chioma told her to stop because she had a brand to protect and she should say the election was peaceful. When she responded, Georgina claimed Chioma unfollowed her, and she, too, blocked her.

But now that she’s directly affected by election violence, Georgina said Chioma dares to share evidence on social media.

During the election, Chioma alleged that she was “abused and beaten” by thugs who disrupted the process at her polling unit in Eti-Osa LGA, Lagos

She warned Georgina not to share posts on people lamenting about rigging and violence at polling units.
