Popular Nigerian blogger, Linda Ikeji, has addressed the malicious reports circulating that she is carrying a prosthetic baby bump.
The millionaire blogger specifically called out a controversial journalist, Kemi Olunloyo, over her recent claims that she could not have children and was only putting up a show for the public.
Linda Ikeji said that it’s a pity that Olunloyo was calling her unprintable names and insinuating such about her after sending money to her when she was languishing in a Port Harcourt prison last year.
She also said she called a few people to see what they could do to help bring her out of prison adding that no matter what she is a woman.
The ecstatic expectant mother also shared photos of her bare bump as evidence that she has a womb to carry her own child.

Linda Ikeji wrote,
“Here’s the next thing I want to address. Most of the people who know me will tell you that I have a heart of gold and maybe that’s why God never stops blessing me.
“This woman (you know who…lol) has been trolling me for years and calling me all sorts of unprintable names which I have never responded to. But when she cried out for help last year, despite the abuses I’ve gotten from her, I sent money to her account.
“I harbour no hate for anyone, no matter what. And I swear I would have sent more money to her if people around me hadn’t stopped me. I just felt pity for her that she was languishing in prison and no one to help her.
“And not only did I send money (which I did privately and she made public), I called a few people I know to see what they could do to help bring her out of prison. No matter what, she is a woman, and I am all about women supporting women.
“She wrote that I am wearing a prosthetic baby bump…lol. Like I could get away with that in Nigeria? And some folks actually believe it…lol. If I couldn’t have a child, I would proudly adopt.

“Proudly. I love children so much. But fortunately, God blessed me with a womb to carry my own child.
“I was just hiding the baby bump until I got to my second trimester before letting you amazing people know. I could have continued hiding it, to be honest, but I just couldn’t keep calm…lol. I’ve had the easiest pregnancy with no swelling and no issues and I thank God.
“Lastly, here’s something I want to say to everyone. I remember when I bought my house in Banana Island in 2015, many didn’t believe it. In factone tweet said ‘If you believe that Linda Ikeji owns a home in Banana Island, I seriously doubt your higher institution certificate’. That’s how much they doubted God’s blessings…lol”
