Our attention has been drawn to a story making the rounds as regards one Austin Anieke, who purportedly claimed to be a staff of Nollywoodgists.com and was alleged to have attempted to blackmail an actress named Shirley Igwe, who is a former Delta soap model and Governor Rochas Okorocha's Principal Prococol Officer.

We wish to categorically state that Austin is not and was never a staff of Nollywoodgists.com. None of our staff goes with that name. It is very disheartening and unbelievable that someone would be planning to drag our reputable and popular media platform in the mud through blackmail.

Nollywoodgists.com is not known for blackmailing people, not even now that we are working tirelessly to rebrand and restructure the platform in positively promoting Nollywood and the Nigerian entertainment industry, especially through our reportage. Thanks.
