Nollywood actress Angela Okorie recently addressed widespread rumors of her arrest by the Nigerian police, clarifying that she was merely invited for questioning. The speculations arose after a viral video surfaced showing Okorie jogging with a police escort, which reportedly drew dissatisfaction from the Nigeria Police Force. Adding to the controversy, rumors circulated that actress Mercy Johnson and her husband, Ned Nwoko, had filed a defamation petition against Okorie, allegedly seeking an 18-year jail sentence, a claim fueled by producer Stanley Ontop.

Amidst the escalating drama, actor Uche Maduagwu publicly appealed to Angela Okorie's estranged ex-lover, known as Oil Money, to intervene on her behalf. Maduagwu's plea, shared in a video clip, highlighted Angela's past 'untrue things' about Oil Money and Mercy Johnson, questioning the necessity of such public attention. Following this appeal, Uche Maduagwu shared snippets from a live chat with Oil Money, where the businessman made several bold claims.

Oil Money asserted that he had advised Angela against involving the Nigerian police in her movie projects during their relationship, advice she apparently disregarded after their breakup. Despite their past differences and public disagreements post-breakup, Oil Money claimed he had reached out to assist her. Uche Maduagwu quoted Oil Money as being 'willing to spend millions of Naira to help her get best Lawyers in her case with police,' showcasing an unexpected offer of support.

Upon her return to social media after a brief hiatus, Angela Okorie directly confronted the arrest rumors in a live video chat with her fans. She emphatically stated that she was not arrested but had indeed responded to a police invitation. Okorie also conveyed her decision to disengage from further online drama, signaling a desire to move past the controversies. She reinforced this stance with a video of herself at the airport, featuring D'banj's song 'Olorun Maje,' whose lyrics subtly hinted at overcoming adversity and ill wishes.

Both Oil Money's public statements and Angela Okorie's direct response elicited a wide range of reactions from the public. While some fans expressed relief and support for Angela, others criticized her choices, perceived insecurities, and engagement in public disputes. Comments varied from expressions of continued loyalty to observations on her appearance without filters and critiques of her 'baddie lifestyle,' highlighting the polarized opinions surrounding the Nollywood personality and the unfolding events.
