Suspended Nollywood actress, Nkechi Blessing has tendered a public apology to the Theater Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners of Nigeria, TAMPAN, over her past criticism. TAMPAN is the umbrella body of Yoruba actors and filmmakers in Nigeria.
The apology comes 3 years after her suspension following her online altercation with actor, Lege Maimi over Baba Ijesha ’s alleged child abuse case.
reports that Blessing with colleague Iyabo Ojo's campaign against Baba Ijesha led to backlash from some TAMPAN members, including Yomi Fabiyi and Lege Maimi. Reacting to the public chaos, veteran actor Jide Kosoko barred directors from working with Iyabo Ojo and Blessing prompting her to mock the association’s decision. However, speaking on Sunday at the 2024 Celebrities Entertainment Awards in Canada, Nkechi Blessing publicly apologised to TAMPAN amidst tears.
