Media personality Sheilah Gashumba has broken her silence after what she described as a distressing day of battling false information about her private life, following claims made by NRG Radio presenter Evelyn Mic, who appeared convinced of the information she was sharing on air.
In a series of emotional posts shared on her Snapchat account, Gashumba said she was forced to do something she rarely does, making calls to media personalities and bloggers to have the alleged false reports taken down.
“I’m not usually the person who clears anything about myself and it’s so sad I woke up to something very disturbing and full of lies!! I’ve never had to call any radio station or a blogger to have my name cleared like I did today,” she wrote.
The socialite said the situation left her heartbroken, adding that it was the first time she had personally reached out to have a story removed.
“I’ve been in this space and I’ve never called any blogger or radio to delete a false video or story of me and today was my first,” she said.
Describing the incident as an attack fueled by “bad energy,” Gashumba said she could not understand why people would deliberately spread falsehoods about her.
“I can’t even explain how I feel about all these lies and madness! At this point, there is just so much bad energy and evil moving around us, only prayers can help,” she wrote.
She added that although the video was eventually taken down, it had already been downloaded and circulated by other social media users, making it difficult to completely erase.
“Even after making calls till the video was deleted, some people had already downloaded and sent themselves the false story and that can’t even be erased!! Please disregard that information!” she said.
Gashumba also addressed speculation about her love life, revealing that she has been in a relationship for the past year and deliberately chose to keep it away from the public eye.
“I’m in the space in my life where I’m fully contented! I’m not searching for anyone, not talking or seeing anyone apart from the person I’ve been seeing for a year now. The reason I’ve kept it private and not on social media is because I’ve been trying to protect something that is very special to me,” she wrote.
She concluded by appealing to the public to respect her privacy and wish her well instead of spreading rumours.
“Please let’s respect that. Even if you have always wished me bad, I’m begging you to leave this special person and moment in life and at least wish me luck. I’m so gutted.”
