Tiktoker Nwakaego Okoye who was arrested and jailed for defaming Nollywood actress and producer Eniola Badmus, has given insight into her ordeal behind bars.
Okoye said she was brutally beaten by a gang of persons to the point of losing her beauty.
She revealed this in her latest video while reacting to a comment via her Tik Tok page.
The Tiktoker alleged that no fewer than six persons assaulted her and that she is still recuperating from all the damage done to her body a week after release from jail.
“They did not tell you people that they gang-beat me.
“They gang-beat me to the point that I lost count of how many people who laid hands on me, I feel like it was more than 6 people.
“That beating was too terrible, it was too brutal that my beauty left me and ran away.
“Till now, more than one week plus that I’m out, I’m still trying to recover my beauty, I’ve been on supplements, and so many marks on my body because of the beating I collected I don’t think I have ever been beaten like that or will I ever collect such because that beating no be for human being.
“You people do not understand what I went through. My eyes saw what my mouth can not talk.”
In July, Okoye was arrested for defaming Badmus who she alleged was a professional pimp.
The Daily Crucible had on August 3 reports that the Federal High Court sitting in Lagos slammed Okoye Blessing Nwakaego with three years jail term for cyberstalking Nollywood actress, Eniola Badmus, via a social media app, TikTok.
Justice Nicholas Oweibo convicted Nwakaego after plea of guilty to a two-count charge of cyberstalking.
The judge, however, reckoned that she had been remorseful and gave her an option of paying a fine of N150,000 in lieu of jail time.
According to the charge, Nwakaego and one Chimabia (now at large) had between December 2022 and July 2023 in Lagos conspired to commit the offence.
The two, as alleged, knowingly caused the transmission of communication via Tiktok, Gossipmill TV, remedy blog and other social media network, with her mobile number.
Her conduct, according to the police, was “grossly offensive, false and for the purpose of causing annoyance, inconvenience, danger, insult, injury, criminal intimidation, enmity, hatred and needless anxiety to the prejudice of Badmus.”
The court heard that the offence contravened sections 24(1)(b)(2)(a)(c) and 27 of the Cybercrimes Act, 2015.
Prosecution counsel Nosa Uhumwangho, who reviewed the facts of the case, told Justice Oweibo that Nwakaego confessed to making the video following a prompt by a male friend.
At the time, he said: “Blessing said a friend who claimed to know Eniola Badmus narrated the false story to her and that she in turn, narrated the story to a male friend Chimabia, who asked her to do a video of the false story that Eniola Badmus specialises in introducing young Nigerian girls to men.
“Blessing said after making the video, Chimabia gave her N200,000 and asked her to post it on her Tiktok from where other platforms picked it.”
Nosa also told the Court that over three million viewers viewed the maligning video online.
