Famous Nigerian actress Dayo Amusa has called out a content creator who alleged that she’s HIV positive.
A content creator, Olaoluwa Segun, on Friday, in a viral video, named the actress among five Nigerian actors living with HIV.
However, responding to the claim in a video on her Instagram page, Dayo Amusa explained that the content creator picked up a post she made in 2019.
Debunking the viral claim, Dayo Amusa who noted she’s HIV negative, admitted to having made a post about her HIV status six years ago to educate the public.
She further threatened legal action against the content creator.
“I want to address a video that is trending across all social media platforms since the last 24 hours. A video posted by someone I don’t know, and people start to tag me in it.

“The video is related to a post I made in 2019 regarding my HIV status, which was negative. The purpose of that post was to educate people on the importance of knowing their HIV status. And even if, for any reason, you’re positive, it’s important to seek medical help and take the necessary steps. After all, it’s not the end of the world.
“It’s shocking that someone picked it and enlisted me with others, claiming we are HIV positive without any proper investigation. The post has attracted several comments and likes. I am not going to let this slide. I will make you a scapegoat,” she added.
Popular Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has stated that he doesn’t chase everything in a skirt, contrary to widespread assumptions.
He explained that his age, work, and demanding schedule do not permit indulgence.
The 38-year-old revealed that he has been single for the past two to three years.
He disclosed it in a recent episode of The Culture League podcast, which also featured Super Eagles star Victor Boniface and comedian Bovi.
Timini Egbuson said,
“A lot of people assume that I’m a womaniser. But I’m not. In the past two, three years, Nollywood has taken over my life in a way that there’s no room, except you will be the most unserious [to womanise].
“I even wonder how some of my friends who womanise, date four or five girls simultaneously, have time to attend to all of them. Because from being on set all day to getting back tired at 11 pm, I will now start chatting a lady? I don’t have the capacity for that. So, I’m not in the street as people may think I am.”
