Famous Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, has described the viral reports of her fleeing the United States because of the ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles as inaccurate.
Recall that the actress, in a series of posts shared on her Instagram story, announced her arrival in Nigeria on Thursday, January 9, 2025.
She said, “Touchdown Abuja. When my American fans follow me back to Nigeria. I had to evacuate in 20 minutes. Please, guys, stay safe out there. If you have family in LA, check on them.”
Following her post, it was widely reported that Omotola fled LA to Nigeria over the ongoing wildfire, which has forced over 137,000 people to leave their homes and claimed over 30 lives, including Hollywood actress Dalyce Curry.
However, reacting to the report in a statement on her Instagram page on Tuesday evening, Omotola denied the viral speculations and reassured her fans that she and her family are safe.
“I want to take a moment to address the incredible outpouring of concern and support I have received regarding the fires in Los Angeles.
