John Aikpokpo-Martins, The first Vice President of the NBA, issued a statement on Monday denouncing former housemate of Big Brother Naija season 7, Beauty Tukura, as a member of the association.
Aikpokpo-Martins, in a post on his Facebook page, explained the action, which led to her disqualification from the show, prompted a swift check on the database of the roll of legal practitioners kept at the Supreme Court and members of the NBA where none of which her name was found.
According to him, her action may bring shame to members and the profession, if truly she is a lawyer.
Aikpokpo-Martins said a check of the databases of the Roll of Legal Practitioners kept in the Supreme Court and the NBA did not show Beauty Tukura as a member.
“I hereby appeal to anyone who may be aware of her true name assuming we may have gotten her real name wrong to reach out to me,” he added.
Beauty was on Sunday disqualified from the show after receiving three strikes in less than two weeks.
During her introduction, the former beauty queen told the public she was a lawyer.
“A quick check of the databases of the Roll of Legal Practitioners kept in the Supreme Court and the Nigerian Bar Association failed to reveal the name ‘Beauty Tukura’ to be on the Supreme Court Roll or to be a member of the Nigerian Bar Association.
