Aishat Raji, the Nigerian actress, has responded to filmmaker Austine Emmanuel’s long-standing allegations that she colluded with industry marketers to sabotage his career.

The feud dates back to a 2025 interview in which Emmanuel claimed he was the one who introduced Raji to the film industry and that the two were romantically involved.

He alleged that after their relationship ended, Raji conspired with a major marketing company Toymax Film Holdings — with whom he claimed she was also involved — to have him blacklisted from directing and writing roles.

Responding in a TikTok live session that has since gone viral, Raji dismissed every aspect of Emmanuel’s story.

She denied ever having a romantic or sexual relationship with him.

Raji also refuted the claim that Emmanuel was responsible for her entry into Nollywood, stating that her first movie was directed by veteran actor Rasaq Olayiwola (Ojopagogo), not Emmanuel.

She accused him of trying to “force himself” on her despite knowing she was in a relationship and framed his allegations as jealousy over her success.

“Austine tell the world the reason for your downfall. Bring out the evidence that we ever had sex. If you have family issues, don’t put your frustration on me,” [/b]she said.

[b]“I warned you then not to destroy your marriage because of me when you were chasing me around. To those saying I wanted to be his second wife, how can I be a second wife to a poor man who could not even afford to rent a house, a man who never contributed a dime to his wedding, who does not know what his kids eat.

“You can not even afford a three square meal. You were sleeping with different married women and you expect to make it in life.

She turned the blacklisting accusation back on him and concluded by accusing Emmanuel of being the architect of his own professional struggles.

“You told producers not to use me in their movies again, it is karma for you,” she said.

That is their problem. We have more problem at hand now. Killing in Kwara, Niger, Benue others, Real-time transmission of election results etc

This Aishat is not wise. She could have simply said she doesn't know the guy or his claims are wrong. Saying all that stuff about his family and him sleeping with married women and him being poor etc already confirms that what he was saying is true. But the Emmanuel guy should chill. Recently he has been trying so hard tk use popular actors to trend in order to revive his dead career

Men that are rising stay away from women especially when you're in the process of becoming but una no go hear.when your lreek directs your life you won't know when go fvk the agbako ones.i have no pity for a man that falls because of a woman because na una type dey do s3x for roles and when she saw that was the game you were playing she used you as a ladder.

As a man keep your mouth under control. The bible says he who must live long and enjoy his days must control his mouth but his excitement of rising was making him do unnecessary cho chocho because he felt he had arrived.kunle remi too made that mistake before he caution himself. He sef almost collect.whatever secrets you know about anybody or your seniors in the industry no suppose consain you to the extent that you will be spilling too much on podcasts.infact many of you in the industry podcasts lomakoba yin because you say a lot of implicative shii

In other words people should not express their opinions, because they are in Nollywood Abi, meanwhile, I will advise you to go and listen directly to what Kunle said and nonsense you are reading on social Media.

Even the dancers will know that Kunle is on their side.
