A Lagos socialite who was recently installed as the Erelu of Kemta Kingdom, Pearl Chidinma Ogbolu has apologised for sharing premium motor spirit also known as petrol as souvenir at her installation party.
The apology was sequel to the backlash from Nigerians over the viral video where kegs of petrol with stickers “Erelu Okin Foundation Installation Party” were shared at the ceremony as the waiters and ushers appeared not to mind the dangers involved in the carefree handling of the petrol at the event which took place at the Havillah Event Place, Oniru, Victoria Island, Lagos.
Ogbolu, who took to her verified Instagram page on Saturday, March 05, 2022 wrote: “I want to use this medium to apologise for the momentarily indiscretion of bringing fuel Souvernirs into the hall.
“My intent was just to show appreciation to my guests for turning up at my event at these hard times.
“I have paused to reflect and truly apologise and I thank you all for your understanding and criticisms.”
