Wisdom Macaulay, the elder brother of popular Nollywood actress, Annie Idibia, has opened up on the actual reason for publicly dragging his sister.
Recall that Wisdom had set social media ablaze after he claimed that the actress introduced him to drugs and also refused to pay for business they had together.
Speaking in an interview with The PUNCH, he said he took the decision to cry out on social media after he was attacked by mobs allegedly sent by Annie Idibia.
The estranged elder brother stated that the video was a cry for help as he thought it would be his last day alive.
“I feel embarrassed bringing my family issues to the public. I brought this to the public because I was ‘mobbed’. I had an issue with my sister.
“I drove out to cool off with the intention of coming back with her car. But, she sent a mob to me and they were hitting my car. I had to run, leaving my phones and other items in the car. I did what I did because I was being chased and I did not know what would happen next. I felt I should put out that video if it was going to be the last time people would hear from me,” he said.
On the claims of being introduced to drugs by Annie, Macaulay said, “That’s absolutely not true. I said that because I was depressed and angry. She just took away my job and it meant she took away food from my mouth.
“After she took away the job and shut down the company (we formed), I knelt down and begged her with tears in my eyes in the presence of her children and staff. She walked out on me, saying she does not want to have anything to do with me.
“I and Annie had an agreement that when the clothing company (we established) grew, I would get a percentage of it. At a point, we were growing and making money.
“However, when she was away in South Africa, she got some complaints that the materials which were being delivered were not the same (quality of) materials we started with. She then decided to shut down the company even after I had spent over a year working on it. That was why I called her out.”
Following the incident, Wisdom stated that no family members has reached out to him, not even one.
“My immediate family members have not reached out to me since I called out Annie. Not even Annie (has reached out). The only person who reached out to me was 2Baba. He has tried to encourage me. My mum has not reached out to me. She would not want to do anything that would go against my sister’s wishes because most times, she (Annie) is the one that looks out for her,” he added.
