Nollywood actress, Mercy Aigbe Gentry has denied the viral reports that her husband was recently beaten to a pulp.
According to her, the report shocked her when she came across it, wondering what those behind the rumour wanted to achieve.
It's was reported that Mercy's husband, Lanre Gentry was recently beaten mercilessly by one of Governor Mimiko's special aides, Bashorun Akinloye Akinboni on November 26, 2014 at his hotel premises in Ikeja, Lagos in the presence of Gospel artist, Atorise and popular Yoruba movie presenter, Segun Adisa.
The report claimed that Mr Bashorun allegedly got angry and carried out the act on realizing that Mercy's husband had tried to play a fast one on him. He had rented an apartment from Mr Gentry only to find out later that the same house had been rented to Gospel singer, Atorise.
So when he got to the hotel, and coincidentally met Atorise there, an argument ensued and he lost his cool and pounced on Larry Gentry, beating him to a pulp. When the beating became too much and blood was gushing out of his body, Atorise took to his heels, leaving the venue unhurt.
Reacting to the report, Mercy said; "I was shocked when i read the story. It's all fabricated and nothing of such happened. I wonder what the rumour peddler hopes to achieve, and seriously such fabricated story doesn't move me one bit. I'm busy working on my new movie and new business venture. Too too fucused to be moved by false stories! Like my people will say....make dem continue! While i'll keep shinning!
God is at work!"
