“Yvonne Nelson’s allegations of my affair with Tonto Dikeh almost cost me my relationship” — Iyanya

Famous Nigerian singer, Iyanya opens up on how the accusations made by his former Ghanaian girlfriend and actress Yvonne Nelson, regarding his alleged infidelity with Tonto Dikeh, nearly jeopardized his current relationship.

Iyanya revealed this during his appearance on the most recent episode of the “Tea With Tay” podcast, hosted by actor Temisan Emmanuel Ahwieh, also known as Taymesan.

In a book titled ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson,’ released on June 18, 2023, Yvonne Nelson recounted her discovery of Iyanya’s alleged affair with Tonto Dikeh.

Following the book’s publication, Iyanya shared that someone he was pursuing a romantic relationship with became uncertain about getting involved with him.

“That stuff [Yvonne Nelson’s allegations] is crazy, bro. That stuff almost made me lose a relationship. A current relationship.

“Before this book [Yvonne Nelson’s memoir], I was talking to one innocent girl who is not famous but immediately that book came out, everything became shaky. The girl was feeling like, ‘Omo, this guy, have you changed? Are you sure you won’t do me the same?’” he stated.
