Nigerian singer Iyanya, also known as Iyanya Mbuk, recently revealed in an interview that he was unaware that actress Yvonne Nelson had written about him in a book he helped promote.
Iyanya expressed his disappointment at the stories shared by Nelson in her book titled ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson’.
According to Iyanya, Nelson had even requested a video endorsement from him for the book, which he agreed to. However, he was taken aback by the revelations made by Nelson in the book.

He said; “I was hurt. I won’t lie to you. She called that she was launching a book and needed a video to endorse the book but I didn’t know I was in the book. I did that because we are cool. So it was when the book came out and I knew I was in the book.”
In her book, Nelson accused Iyanya of being unfaithful to her and having a relationship with Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh. She mentioned that whenever she left Iyanya after visiting him in Nigeria, Dikeh would come to see him and sometimes stay overnight.
Nelson also believed that Iyanya’s involvement with Dikeh was not an isolated incident, as she had heard rumors about his interactions with female members of his crew.
