Timini Egbuson’s Controversies
Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson, has been called out by his former girlfriend Lydia Balogun for targeting and dating naive teenagers.
In a series of tweets shared via her Twitter page on Monday, August 16, 2021, the podcaster said Egbuson has become notorious for sleeping with anything that breathes.
“Timini Egbuson you are a predator, a cradle snatcher, you’re a pervert and an all-round terrible person. Meeting this man, I had no clue about his sexual past or who he had been involved with, didn’t know anyone from his social circle. And now I know it is also intentional,” she tweeted.
But reacting, Timini in a statement on his Twitter page said all the women he has dated were older than the legal consenting age.
According to him, his relationship didn’t work with his ex due to mistakes from both ends.
“Firstly, I would like to make clear beyond any doubt that I do not condone courting or having a relationship with anyone under the age of consent. Rumours are rumours but baseless accusation of sexual abuse or grooming of underage woman is something I don’t take lightly given the severity of the issue.
“Lydia and I dated two years ago, we were both consenting adults and our families knew and approved of each other. Our relationship didn’t work out due to circumstances we were both at fault for which resulted in us parting ways.
“Our relationship was a volatile one and mistakes were made on both ends. Nevertheless, I learned from it and have moved on. I honestly would like to put that chapter of my life behind me and I wish her well.”
