He then later gave the money out…. Now he is calling out Bloggers who didn’t carry this story, but rather, loves carrying “bad new about him”.
He also used the opportunity to shade Eniola badmus and Kcee.
Read His rant below;
Over 24 hours ago, I was having fun on my Snapchat with few friends to raise money for me to blow for the weekend.
In less than an hour I was sent over 2million naira which was much more than what I was seeking to have fun for that moment so I decided to give some of it out, I sent a couple of people I know some of it and I remembered a boy with a severe pain because by an armed robbery attack, so I decided to donate to him to get good medical attention, I also thought I would use my platform to get him a lot of donors which I posted his case on my page and he has then received massive turn out from my friends and followers but there’s something I noticed, to my surprise not even one of this bloggers who are quick to pick anything I do ever picked that good I did to write about, rather I see some blogs posting hushpuppi stylishly turns beggar, and none of their commenters/fans wrote to them that they should see this and that which hushpuppi has done o, none of your celebrities do this rather they only post and fold their arms to problem of the public who made them who they are, we didn’t see eniola badmus and kcee to tag federal government that I deserve a goodwill award but they are quick to tag efcc to come and investigate my blessings but at the end of the day I am not surprised, all my years in the struggle I have learnt black people mostly Nigerians are quick to bring their own down rather than praise, build or support each other.
Love don’t exist among us but with all this, I won’t stop being the good guy that I am either y’all see it or not, God sees it and I see why he never seize to keep blessing me.
May God bless u good guys out there that never get celebrated or appreciated, God see your work and will crown your handiwork

“How My Colleagues Tried To Frame Me Up”-Star Actor, YOMI FABIYI Speaks on His Alleged Sexual Harassment With Omoshalewa
Late November 2017, star actor, Yomi Fabiyi reeled in the pool of scandal when one lady called Eniola Omoshalewa Eunice, claimed that the actor cum producer had some years back demanded sex from her before she could be featured in his production.
Fabiyi denied the allegation and subsequently reported the matter to the police, offering to pay N20,000 to anyone with information on Eunice’s whereabouts.
The allegation, which he believed was meant to frame him up by her colleagues simply because of his new movie, Agbedemeji that is trending online was later investigated by the police and the truth prevailed.
Recently,popular journalist, Gbolahan Adetayo spoke with Yomi Fabiyi, who rubbished the claims. “Firstly, I will like to pray that may we not pay for things we didn’t buy”, he explains.
“Though, the matter is currently in court but I want to tell you that there are bad people who derive pleasure from destroying things or even their fellow human”.
“Whenever one is trying to climb the ladder of success, they always find their way to bring you down. That could be because they don’t want you to be on their level or to surpass them, I wouldn’t know. I recently released a movie titled “Agbedemeji” which hit the shelves in October and a few days after, it was released online and within a week, I got about 150,000 viewers. And based on the job I do, we all promote ourselves on social media.
My fans were leaving series of comments under the video. Some were even of the opinion that I should take the film to cinemas, they advised me to move to the next level.
Subsequently, people started calling my attention to a comment posted by a stranger claiming that nine years back, she wanted to act and she met with me to help but I demanded for sex from her before I could help her. She claimed that when she refused, I told her to get down from my car.
The way she put it didn’t show that one has committed any crime but all their aims was to tarnish the image of Yomi Fabiyi that everyone is praising today so that people will stop watching the flick. I was baffled when I read the comment, I hastily checked her profile and I noticed that I haven’t seen the person before in my life. Meanwhile, the 9 years back she was talking about, I was yet to own a car, I bought my first car at the end of the year and by then; I didn’t know how to drive.
Secondly, she said the day she met and told me she wanted to act, I told her to start acting. For someone I haven’t seen before? Which cloth would she wear when she gets to the location? Is it the first day you told me you wanted to act that I will feature you? Afterward, I wrote a letter to the Commissioner of Police in Lagos State to investigate the matter for me.
Immediately I made the move, I realised there was no way to trace her because she wrote the rubbish on social media platform, no address to go with it. So, I posted on the same social media that whosoever can provide the address of the lady for me will be rewarded with N20,000 and to God be the glory, I got all I needed to know about her and immediately the letter got to her, she ran to human right activists saying that Yomi Fabiyi is lying against her, calling her on phone and all that.
I was invited and I told them that I wrote to the Nigeria Police Force yesterday and I told them I won’t come, I was threatened with AIG, all I wanted was that the police should interfere in the matter so that my lawyer will see facts to work with, which will be different from mere civil case.”
“During the investigation, they realized that she was just lying against me. She later confessed that she only wrote that comment because she hadn’t met with me before. The police informed her that that was defamation of character, she should apologize to me.
I made her know that I am not disputing the fact you claim to be my fan, but go back to that same social media platform and announce to the world that you lied against me. If you do that, I won’t fight you. The Police even told her that for her to have also written petition to them against me, claiming that I wanted to kill her and also lying against her, they said they have the right to sue her to the court of law, but I am the only person that can stop them from taking such decision because I will stand as a witness.
When she came to me with her people, I said I will only forgive her if she makes the amendment by reposting the truth of the matter online and also write undertaking at the police station that you are a liar. Even the instablog that also posted it, he/she isn’t known.
Among all the comments under the flick, he/she singled out this lady’s comment. Though, my name wasn’t mentioned but the description was obvious.
The comment was munched and our pictures with a bad headline were posted. They are also not left out in the plot to destroy me. I told my lawyer that she must do the needful and pay the damages. I sued her for damages of N15,000,000”.
When www.yorubamoviegist.com further asked him about the people he believed could have sponsored the Omosalewa to post such comment against him, Yomi stretched further that, “they know themselves. Thank God that my mother is late now and she sees the bad people claiming to be friends. I wish I can get back the kind of love I have for my colleagues.
All they pay me back with is to go around and dent my image. The same colleague was the one running her mouth that I was begging for money on behalf of Baba Suwe when he was ill. Baba Suwe is my boss, he brought me into acting. He called me and I went to him that very day, I saw the condition he was in and I tried my best to raise something for him from the public.
Rather than joining hands together, this person was busy broadcasting that I was looking for fame and relevance in Nollywood. She called Baba Suwe to tell him what was not true. Everyone saw my efforts then.
Some journalists don’t investigate their stories before they write; they were spreading the bad tales about me. One thing I know is that you can’t destroy my name because you aren’t the one who built it for me. All I know is that I will keep churning out best movies and I won’t go behind to destroy anybody”, he stressed.
