- Nollywood movie star Femi Branch has been caught up in another online scandal and is being called out
- A Nigerian pastor has gone online to drag the Bashorun Ga’a actor for owing his father for the past 14 years
- The pastor not only called him out, but also calculated the interest accrued and vowed to take the money from him by any means necessary.
Nigerians were not expecting to see movie star Femi Branch embroiled in another online scandal so soon. It is no longer news that the veteran actor was recently exposed for allegedly assaulting the assistant director on a movie set.
His actions are still a hot topic online, but there is already another development involving the said actor. According to a tweet by a man who claims to be a pastor, Femi Branch has been owing his father the sum of N1 million since 2011.

The pastor’s father, however, began to add a N50K interest monthly. Going by the above calculations, Pastor Timilayin is now claiming that Femi owes his father N1.9 million, which he has to pay. He boldly stated that if Femi fails to pay, he will surely retrieve the debt from his children.
This revelation has now become a hot topic online, as fans have shared their opinions about it.
The pastor has written in a now-deleted tweet:
“Dear @femibranch, you borrowed the sum of 1 million Naira from Mr Akin Tolulope Komolafe (My Dad) since 2011 with interest of 50,000 per month. You have refused to pay till date. The accumulated sum is now 9.7 million. My Dad helped you out when you needed it most.”
“now everything has worked out for you, you have refused to pay him his money, despite all the efforts he has made to get his money. I just want to let you know one thing, you must pay that loan, if my Dad fails to get it from you, I will get it from you or your children.”

“5% per month back in 2011? That’s somehow sha, if we’re being honest.
@effedeborah said:
“From 1M to 1.9 million, I love this deal 😂 and I also love the guy’s energy “if my Dad fails to get it from you, I will get it from you or your children”.”
@Oluwabiola001 said:
“It’s only a greedy person that will take advantage of someone’s need and propose such interest rate. And it’s only a greedy ‘pastor’ that will endorse it. Infact, nothing like that is mentioned in the signed agreements; the money is 1m, then, maybe he may add for inflation.”
@JoyChikerenma said:
“The interest is much for Christ sakes. Haba! Yes,he did wrong by not paying back since he agreed on that 50k interest but,don’t you think this the reason it is always hard for some people to pay back?”
Again, Femi Branch trends online over refusal to repay loan since 2011.
