Dating Palava: Between Ejiro Okurame and Shirley Igwe

Two Nollywood divas, Ejiro Okurame and Shirley Igwe should absolutely have no reason to get at each other. They live in different worlds even though they are in the same trade. Ejiro is doing fine by herself and has the paraphernalia of Igala kingdom as Omi-Akele of Igala kingdom. Shirley on the other hand has a cozy job as the Principal Protocol Officer to Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State. So, why should they have an axe to grind?

Shirley actually fired the first shot when she reported on her blog that a Nollywood actress is in sizzling romance with an Imo State commissioner. As a careful blogger, she didn’t mention any name but she painted enough picture of the alleged person in her story to get something as good as a mug shot. According to her, the actress in question is in the cast of Clinic Matters and very close to Mama G. Now, who doesn’t know that person is Ejiro Okurame !

It is the biggest joke of 2014 – Ejiro Okurame

When Potpourri ran the story by the Omi-Akele of Igala kingdom, the beautiful actress just smiled and said; “That is the biggest joke of 2014. I actually thought Shirley was doing fine by herself with her blog but this one is a little over her head. There’s absolutely no truth in what she has written” quipped the actress who is not ashamed to tell anyone that cares to listen that Mama G is her godmother.

I have my facts – Shirley Igwe

Shirley on the other hand would not back down and eat her words as she maintained that what she wrote about the actress was true. “At that point, the ‘Clinic Matters’ crew were in America, I couldn’t reach any of them. But I did a lot of investigation, called people and the story was confirmed, so I put the news out” she told Potpourri in a recent chat.

Even when Potpourri reminded her that the actress in question has squashed the story, that what she wrote was a big lie, the former Face of Delta soap fired back : “Most times, people don’t confirm stories especially when it’s something that’s meant to be kept secret. If it leaks, most of them won’t accept it, so they deny it. I made my investigation and it was true. I wrote it when I couldn’t reach her and if

you read the story, you’d notice that no name was mentioned”.
