Nollywood actress Belinda Effah has cleared the air over her change of name following the confusion from some of her fans that her Instagram account had been hacked.
Formerly Belinda Effah, she has now changed her name to Grace-Charis Bassey Effah.
The actress addressed her fans in a live Instagram video on Wednesday which she also posted on her page to put to rest the confusion that has trailed her announcement.
She said in the video: “Alright guys, so this is not a scam, I changed my name ok? I just want to show you guys a few things before I get into the video.”
She walked her viewers around her fashion empire, which she called Grace Charis-Bassey Empire (GCB Empire), showing them the new official logo of the company as well as the labels on the dresses bearing her new name.
The actress also revealed that she had changed her name since 2020. However, she was waiting to put other things in place before making an official announcement.
“This is not scam, my name changed actually last year, but I am just announcing it this year because everything has to be in place,” she said.
The 31-year-old revealed that the change of name had been effected on all her official documents including her passport and bank details.
However, she said her reasons for changing her name would be revealed subsequently.
