• Lizzy Gold stated her last hair brand advertisement was three years ago, urging the public to take note of the clarification

Nollywood actress Lizzy Gold has spoken out against claims linking her to a hair brand, saying she has not advertised any such product in recent times.

The clarification came after a video circulated on Facebook on Wednesday, October 28, featuring some women alleging that Lizzy Gold chose to patronise and promote a particular hair vendor over her close colleague Yul Edochie's wife, actress Judy Austin, who is also in the hair business. The clip spread quickly, prompting widespread tagging of the actress online.
