Actress Sarah Martins debunks claim of death threat to Yul Edochie’s daughter
Sarah Martins, the Nollywood actress, has denied a claim that she paid a lady to attack Danielle, the first daughter of Yul and May Edochie.
A blog had alleged that the actress paid the lady to send death threats to Danielle. The post was accompanied by a receipt allegedly showing Sarah sending N5,000 to the lady.
Denying the allegation via a video on Facebook, Martins said the lady was one of her followers who won a N5,000 giveaway on her page in July.
The actress said she would never wish evil on another man’s child, adding that the allegation was a ploy by the blog owner to create “a heavy lie just to trend”.
She added that the transaction receipts shared by the blogger were doctored to make “evil news”.
“If I have ever thought or wished death upon anyone, let it happen to me and mine!” she wrote.
“I did giveaway sometime in July on my Facebook page (sarahmartins tv), which I posted here and I clearly said I would randomly choose my winners on Facebook which I did and one miss Uzochi Sandra was among the 10 active followers I chose, and credited with 5k each.
“Someone from the pit of hell, saw where the lady dropped an evil comment against May Yul Edochie’s daughter and went back to my giveaway that she won sometimes ago and took a screenshot of it and then merged my picture to it and started circulating disgusting lies against me saying I paid her to kill Daniella the first daughter of May Edochie and the evil news has been flying round the internet.
“Of what benefit is it to me to even think ill of May and her children?????
“This is a very heavy accusation and it is evil for someone to wake up and formulate such a heavy lie just to trend
“I have no hand in this, never have and never will! Please you all should stay away from me…. I have had enough already!!!!!!
“Note: I have NEVER met the said lady before, I do not have any form of relationship with her. She is just a fan that attacks May’s fans same way they attack me.”
Yul and May got married in 2004.
The couple have four children — although Kambilichukwu died in March.

Odumodublvck reveals how Don Jazzy gave him $10k the day he met him for collabo
Odumodublvck, the Nigerian rapper, has recalled how Don Jazzy, the music producer, gave him $10,000 during one of their meetings.
In a recent interview on Beat 97.9FM, the rapper, whose real name is Tochukwu Ojogwu, said he had reached out to Don Jazzy to collaborate on his song ‘Asampete’.
The 31-year-old said he felt that the music producer’s vocals were needed to complete the track.
Odumodublvck said during his visit to Don Jazzy’s residence, he was given the money and told that he could keep all the royalties from the song.
He added that Don Jazzy even offered to be featured as an artiste on the track.
“Don Jazzy is the king of Afrobeats. But ask anybody there is nobody who is more original than Don Jazzy. Don Jazzy is an OG. Respect to my brothers Burna, Wiz, Olamide, Dave all of us used to look up to him. Like the way we used to look up to them — Wizkid and David, they used to look up to him,” he said.
“…I just hit him up. The first day we did ‘Asampere’, I recorded a vocal that sounded like Don Jazzy’s vocal and I was like Don Jazzy should do it.
“When I went to meet him, he gave me a lot of money. I have to put it out there. I tell them everywhere I go. He gave me $10,000 cash. Don no be for mouth. He still gave me vocals.
“He now told me that I can keep all the royalties and I can keep him as a featured artiste. That day, they still cooked food for me to eat. They gave me turkey. The line for ‘turkey’ was already put in the song and that was God.”

Lil Smart files petition against Naira Marley, Zinoleesky over threat to life
Lil Smart, the Nigerian dancer, has filed a petition against Naira Marley and Zinoleesky over the alleged threat to his life.
On December 9, Smart shared disturbing photos and videos on social media, claiming his life was in danger.
He warned that Naira Marley and Zinoleesky should be held responsible if anything happened to him.
Zinoleesky, however, denied the allegations, accusing Smart of “chasing clout”. He also threatened legal action against the dancer.
In a recent Instagram post, Smart alleged he had previously endured bullying from the singers but lacked the evidence needed to take legal action.
He said he has officially submitted his petition with the necessary evidence to the authorities and is hopeful that the legal system will grant him justice.
“This has not been the first or third time I have been experiencing this bullying. But I did not have enough evidence to face the law. Now, I thank God that I have very good evidence, and I will put everything I have in line to make sure this bullying and threat to life is stopped,” he said.
“With my evidence, I really hope that they are not too big to be apprehended and face the law. I have submitted my petition, and I have provided my evidence to the authorities. By God’s grace, the law that binds us as citizens of Nigeria will make sure I get the justice I deserve.”
Naira Marley is yet to comment on the allegations.
