Teniola Apata, a well-known artist better known by her stage name Teni, has given an explanation for her decision to bow down to welcome prominent businessman and socialite Ibrahim Egungbohun Dende, or IBD Dende, aboard an aircraft.
Recall that Teni came under fire on Friday after sharing a video of herself on her X account showing her bowing down to welcome IBD Dende on an aircraft.
Most social media users chastised her for her affiliation with IBD Dende, even in spite of the smuggling charges against him.
Teni responded by saying that she was not aware of any illicit conduct connected to IBD Dende on Sunday morning. She said that she had always held the businessman in high regard and that, in 2014, he had been kind to her.
Teni further noted that she opposes illegal activities nor criminals.
She wrote:
“MET IBD IN 2014 AND HE WAS SO GOOD TO ME, EVEN BEFORE I BLEW UP, SO WHEN I SEE HIM, ITS ALWAYS LOVE. I HONESTLY HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF ANY CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES ASSOCIATED WITH HIM. I DO NOT SUPPORT CRIMINALS, SO LET THE LAW TAKE ITS COURSE”
