Nollywood actress, Patience Ozokwo, aka Mama Gee, has finally reacted to the speculated affair between her and  Delta State-born politician, Michael Diden aka Ejele.

The actress debunked the rumour and stated that she is not in any romantic relationship with any man at the moment, including the former Commissioner at Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission (DESOPADEC), who is also a Pastor.

According to Patience Ozokwo, she has more important issues to handle than having a secret affair with an opposite sex.

She also stated that as a blunt person, if such was true, she would have boldly presented the man in her life to the public.

In an interview with Nigeriafilms.com, she said, “If I am sleeping with any man, it is not an affair because I am entitled to be married. It cannot become an affair because I am not married and my husband is dead.”

“Secondly, I don’t have any man in my life and I don’t intend to have any man. I have friends and I am entitled to my own friends like you,” she added

Speaking further, Mama G said, “It is really annoying when people begin to talk about you with things you never thought of doing.

The actress denied knowing Pastor Michael Diden a.k.a Ejele and planning for a secret marriage.

“I don’t even know the person you guys are talking about. At this age, I shouldn’t be thinking about having a lover. Instead, I should be thinking how to work seriously to make Nigeria grow,” she said.

The 2014 AMAA Best Supporting actress, who was recently spotted in Uganda at the launch of the second edition of the Uganda Film Festival on Tuesday, June 17, 2014, is currently on vacation in London, taking care of her grandchildren and is due to be back in the country soon.
