    Nigerian singer Iyanya has asserted that he endorsed his estranged Ghanaian girlfriend, actress Yvonne Nelson’s controversial memoir, ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson,’ without prior knowledge of his inclusion in the book.

    Mp3bullet reported, the Ghanaian actress detailed her experiences with Iyanya in a chapter titled “Iyanya And My Love Life,” revealing her discoveries about his alleged infidelity with Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh.

    In a recent interview with The Beat 99.9 FM in Lagos, Iyanya admitted to endorsing the book without being aware of its contents. Despite his previous promise to address Nelson’s allegations when the book was released, he stated that he is not yet prepared to respond to the accusations of infidelity.

    Iyanya emphasized that he and Nelson maintain a positive relationship and communicate regularly, indicating that despite any past issues, they remain on good terms.

    He said, “I endorsed Yvonne Nelson’s book without knowing I was in the book. We were cool, we still talk to this day, so I didn’t know that I was in the book. When the book came out, everywhere was buzzing. People were telling me I am in the book. But I have not read it till now.

    “I know I promise to address the allegations she made in her book, but I’m not ready to respond. I’m not going to respond to stuff like that, being me comes with a lot of madness.”

    In addition, Iyanya has unveiled the intriguing backstory behind the title of his latest album, ‘Once Upon A Cat,’ revealing that it was inspired by a comment from a social media troll. During an interview on Naija FM, Iyanya discussed his album and his decision to collaborate with emerging artists.

    The album title stemmed from a remark made by a social media user during a discussion sparked by Davido’s classification of Burna Boy as a “new cat” in the Afrobeats scene.
