I address you all today, taking full responsibility and seeking your pardon with my deepest regrets for the distress and turmoil caused by the events surrounding the selection of Best Dressed at the premiere of 'AJAKAJU.'"</em></p>

<p>The actress apologised to the Muslim community, stressing that she respects the significance of the sacred month and meant no disrespect.

<p>She also apologised to women saying, "<em>To the women in our society, I want to express my profound apologies. As a woman myself, I understand the importance of upholding and honouring our gender with dignity and respect. I want to assure you that I hold the utmost reverence for womanhood, and I would never intentionally engage in any behaviour that diminishes or disparages the role of women in our society."</em></p>

<p>She also specially apologised to veterans <strong>Femi Adebayo,</strong> his wife and <strong>Dayo Amusa</strong> who had gotten into a bitter exchange of words on social media over the matter.
