The last might not have been heard about the
reported ill-tempered altercation that recently
occurred between popular Ghanaian actress,
Yvonne Nelson, and Elvis Eze, at the birthday
party of actress Ingrid Alabi in Ghana as Eze has
come out to debunk the allegations of assault
heaped on him by Nelson.
Eze revealed that contrary to the accusations
peddled all over digital and social media, he never
at any time physically assaulted Nelson; instead,
he merely questioned the sultry actress over her
negative attitude towards him after she snubbed
him at the party.
It was widely reported in online entertainment
news platforms, blogs, and the social media that
Eze had purportedly assaulted Nelson physically
over her refusal to shake his hands and hug him
after he had been introduced to Nelson by Alabi
during Alabi’s birthday celebrations on September
26 in Accra, Ghana.
Narrating his own side of the happenings that
occurred on that fateful day to our correspondent,
the Ghanaian-based Nigerian socialite said he
was very disappointed that the actress could act
so disrespectfully to him considering that he
approached her courteously.
In his words, “Ingrid Alabi invited me to her
birthday party on Saturday, September 26, 2015.
Upon getting to the party venue, I saw Yvonne
Nelson at the event. After the party, I went inside
Ingrid’s sitting room, where she hosted her
exclusive guests to inform her that I was leaving.
During that period, Yvonne Nelson taking pictures
with the celebrant and one other actress. Ingrid
then asked me to join them to take pictures
together which we did.
“After taking the pictures, Ingrid introduced me to
Yvonne Nelson as her brother and Yvonne to me
as a friend. When the introduction was over, I
wanted to have a handshake with Yvonne. She
blatantly refused and she was rude to me, saying
she doesn’t shake or hug people that she’s not
familiar with and I walked out.”
Eze who disclosed that he was a huge fan of the
actress prior to the incident said he approached
Nelson when he spotted her sitting in her car on
his way out of Alabi’s house. Although, he
admitted that there were verbal exchange of
words between him and Nelson, he never for
once threatened to raise a finger not to talk of
physically fighting her.
“On my way out, I saw her sitting in her car and I
walked up to her and told her that ‘Yvonne what
you did in there is not called for because I’m a
big fan of yours and I watch your movies, I follow
your movies and I was opportune to see you for
the first time after someone introduced me to
you, I was just trying to say Hi and you were rude
to me.’
“She just exploded and said ‘I should shift and get
out from her front that she doesn’t want to talk to
me’ after which we began to exchange words, I
told her that ‘you stupid or sick in the head.’ That
was it and she started insulting me and of
Nigerians saying that ‘Nigerians are useless, mad,
crazy and stupid.’ So I walked away from there
and I went home,” he said.
Eze disclosed that he was surprised when he
heard that the case had degenerated badly to the
extent that the issue propped up on networking
site, Facebook, where he was accused of
molesting Nelson. He further said he was alarmed
when he was told that his image was shown on
TV stations and newspapers across Ghana and
he had been reported to the Accra airport police.
According to Eze, “Two days after the event, I
saw a post on Facebook saying that Yvonne
Nelson had been assaulted by a Nigerian man
named Elvis Eze also known as Elvis Casino. I
was so baffled seeing this so I immediately called
Ingrid. She (Ingrid) told me that Yvonne brought
policemen to her house at about 3am, saying that
Ingrid must take her to Elvis house to get him
arrested for assaulting her. This is what I was
told by Ingrid. Later on, I started receiving
numerous calls from my friends and associates,
telling me that my face is on T.V. and on
newspapers alleging that I assaulted Yvonne and
that a case had been lodged at the at airport
police station in Accra by Yvonne regarding the
incident.”
Insisting that he was innocent of the accusations,
Eze remarked; “I never assaulted her, I didn’t
touch her or beat her, I did not molest her and I
left there without anybody harassing me or
chased me out because I did not touch her. Even
Ingrid Alabi was there and she can bear me
witness and other people there can also bear
witness to this. A lot of people were there, actors
and actresses that were there can bear me
witness.”
Terribly pained about the incident, Eze said he
was disappointed about how Nelson had handled
the entire issue, saying he never expected the
star studded actress to have taken the issue to
the public glare and defame his personality.
“I just saw her for the first time and I am one of
her greatest fans, and I love her movies. I was
surprised when I saw her at Ingrid’s party. So
when I was introduced to Yvonne, I was so happy
that I had met her finally. I was so surprised and
disappointed how she was rude to me because I
didn't know the way she act is different from the
way she behave in real life. That is my own side
of the story. It was just a normal
misunderstanding, I was even surprised to see
that things will get this far,” he concluded.
