Her engagement came two years after her scandal with her married colleague, Ibrahim Yekini, popularly known as Itele. The actor was alleged to have dated Debankee. To worsen things, Debankee is Temitope Solaja’s friend, who was romantically linked to the actor. Reacting to the news, Itele had vowed to reach everybody.
