Bearing that there had been much talks about the scandal and that Linda had recently been in the news after buying her Banana Island mansion, Nigerians were very quick to react.

However, Linda has gone on her blog to deny the allegations saying that the only money she ever received from any political party or person was for adverts. See excerpts from her blog below:
“But seriously for the record…no party registered or unregistered, no human being dead or alive gave me N240m for anything. “Anyway, all these bad belle people looking for ways to bring a woman down…like I always say…you can’t! Except you’re mightier than God! Whether you like it or not, I’m a hardworking young woman who God chose to bless the work of her hand and is using me to bless others”.
