Shan George knows she is cannon for controversies and is
unapologetic about it. Recently, she was quoted to have said that most married Nollywood
actresses are not faithful to their husbands, that they keep numerous lovers.
that allegation was said to have rankled a number of her colleagues who felt
scandalized by such revelations. The mother of two boys said that offensive
article misrepresented her statement and was motivated by the writer’s desire
to cause unnecessary friction between her and her colleagues in the industry. Recently
too, a picture of Shan was posted on line where she was seen seemingly
cavorting with the top Chelsea soccer star, Mikel Obi, leading to the
speculation that she and Mikel are dating. When asked, Shan was incredulous
“This is really getting crazy. So I can’t even have a drink with someone – just
innocently, without being linked romantically with the person? Mikel Obi is at
a talented soccer player whose skills I appreciate. I am his big fan and when
they won the Champions Cup last May, I was over the moon with excitement for
him and his team mates. We met and had a drink in Lagos recently and that was
that! Nothing
romantic happened between us. I am not dating Mikel Obi and I
hope some of these traffickers of lies can go have themselves some life.”
