Gbemi was clear that she was not attempting to cast MC Fish in a favourable light regarding his past marriage.

Instead, she argued that he has acknowledged his wrongdoing and deserves the chance to move forward without continued online attacks.

"I am not saying he was a good person in that marriage; I'm just saying he has accepted he did a bad thing. Just forgive him and let him go," she said.

She also suggested the volume of negativity they have been receiving feels coordinated, though she stopped short of directly blaming Anita Joseph.

"You know she is big in status, and the hate we have been getting is sponsored; maybe not by her, it could be an overzealous fan," she added.

Gbemi's message to Anita Joseph

Gbemi maintained that she never intended her words as an attack on Anita Joseph, but expressed a wish that the actress had stepped in sooner to calm her supporters.
