Social media content creator Amarachi Amusi, popularly known as Ashmusy, has refuted the claims that she is being sponsored by popular politician Dino Melaye.
In an interview with The PUNCH, she disclosed that her luxurious lifestyle is a product of her hard work and not funded by politicians as speculated.
Reacting to her alleged relationship with the senator, she said, “I will say they should keep swimming in their ignorance and poverty; that is their problem.
“If they cannot see the work (we do) and the things we post every day, and realise that those things fetch us money (that is their problem). It is totally untrue (that I am being financed by anyone).
She also stated that she was surprised by the allegations that she and Melaye were involved in an amorous relationship.
“I did not comprehend it, especially since I had never met him or interacted with him(Melaye).
“The allegation came about because the blog involved was trying to chase clout and drive attention to their page.”
Justifying why she contacted the blogger despite her claims of innocence, Ashmusy said, “The blogger and I typically communicate even about business, so I wrote a message contradicting the story. I inquired as to why they published such egregious and inaccurate material (about me) without first checking it.
She also added that she won’t be pressing charges against the blogger who published the news as she is focused on other issues.
“One cannot file a complaint against the wind. Due to the blog’s anonymity, the authors had the gall to post such rubbish without seeking any redress. In the interim, I’m refocusing on my life’s more crucial issues,” she added.
