Ex-MBGN Munachi Abii Debunks Love Affair With Peter Okoye (Psquare)

The beautiful model, singer and former Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria (MBGN), Munachi Abii has stepped forward to debunk the long time claims that her lover affair with Peter Okoye of Psqaure musical duo. The rumour of their romance kicked-off shortly after she featured in the video of multiple award winning hip hop stars entitled, Ifunanya. Although she has been on low concerning the issue, the light skin onetime TV presenter cleared the air in her interview with Vanguard Newspaper. She was asked if what happened between her and Peter Okoye was love at first sight, she stated:

“Look, I know Lola Omotola very well. I have known her for years and we are really close. All those things you heard or read about us are not true. Peter Okoye and I are friends. I know his family well. I was just invited to be in his video (Ifunanya) and that was it. Nothing more than that. I know how Peter and Lola love each other and I respect their love. I could never do that to them. I could never bring myself to do anything to hurt them.”

When the reporter told her that it’s good to have her clear the air, she interrupted and stated:

“(She interrupts) What you’ll see is another screaming headline, “Muna again denies affair with Peter Okoye.” It’s not fair, it’s heartbreaking and very frustrating. Some of these things you media guys write about us hurts us so badly.”

Just wondering why such a beautiful and controversial popular babe will be afraid of what the media will say about her.
