Thespian and wife of legendary musician, Annie Idibia, is once again in the news, as her elder brother Wisdom Macaulay has taken to social media to call her out over issues bothering on business dealing and her personal life.
Annie has been in the news for the wrong reasons in recent times, and whenever a moment of respite is in sight, another ugly incident seems to rear its ugly head.
Wisdom took to his Instagram page and accused his sister of threatening his life, noting that she is a substance abuser and that she introduced him to drugs.
In the video, he also claimed he was hired to manage his sister, but never got paid for the service he rendered. He added that Annie occasionally pays him a paltry sum of N20,000 or N30,000.
He specifically recounted the stress he passed through when he worked on the project ‘Annie’s kiddies brand’ which at the end of the day, he never got paid for.
He also alleged that with the treatment he got from his sister, he has not been able to adequately provide for his family, saying his sister has extended her threat to his family also.

Responding to her brother’s allegations, Annie refuted all his claims, noting that she had been there for him and his family all along, citing instances of paying the children’s school fees and prepaying his loans.
She also traced his social media outburst to her refusal to make him her manager, adding that she paid his rent and bought him cars in the past.
She said: “Oh Wizy….why big bro why…
“Wisdom….why all these lies against your ONLY sister…your younger sister, all I ever did was protect you and your kids…
“Since we grew up bro, have you ever paid for house rent in your entire life? You live in a three-bedroom flat fully furnished with everything you need for you and your kids.
“Wisdom you have three kids, have you ever paid for their school fees since they were born? Your oldest nine, for nine years since your wife started making babies..have you ever paid for hospital bills for any of your kids? Have you ever paid school fees? Oh Wizy, how many cars have I bought for you..since God started blessing me! You say work for me…how??? Where????
“After dad died…the car I had bought for him told u to service the jeep.. you sold the car without telling me..all I have was love you and your kids!! Every Christmas I make sure they all get something new…I even make sure your wife isn’t aware! How many times have I given you millions Wizy, how many times? But you are way too irresponsible because I don’t have the heart to watch your kids go hungry!
”Keep blackmailing me that you will kill yourself! I have receipts on my online banking and proof! Why do you wanna destroy this little career I have worked so hard to make? This is where I make 80 percent of my money! Same money I used to send your kids to school..pay your rent! All your hospital bills! Why would you want to destroy your sister.”
She added: “Just yesterday your wife called crying they sent your kids home….for school bus…money I already gave you since! I paid straight to the school. Why Wizy! I want to be my manager… I said “I am sorry I don’t think it’s something I can do…till you get the help you need… How many cars have I bought for you bro? How many?
“You duped my friend and I had to pay! You took two different loans from banks… I had to pay for you just so it doesn’t get out of this space! Wizzy what more can a sister do? What? I have my family too. I hate all these lies why?! I am at the peak of my career! Please bro…why these lies!!!
“Just because I said You can’t be my manager! I have so many voice notes from your wife! I won’t disgrace you and put it out here! I am tired! Do as you like! The universe will protect me, my hard work, my kids, my family. Let the world believe anything! My name is Annie! I am not the lies you are saying! I work hard…not lazy! Entitlement! Wow, bro! I wish you well
Her husband, Tuface also reacted to Wisdom’s story, encouraging his wife not to take the backstabbing to heart, as some people can’t handle the truth.
“It’s funny how some people react when you tell them the truth. Even though I am guilty of it sometimes, that is no excuse. I pray for Wisdom. LYTIDAwanaa.
“May Allah guide our path. One love from me and Annie. Respect to family, but sometimes, some family is your worst enemy.”
This is not the first time a member of Annie Idibia’s family will take their family issue to social media.
In September 2021, her eldest brother, Uduak Macaulay, publicly disowned her during the controversy that plagued her marriage when she called out her husband for sleeping with his baby mama Pero Adeniyi.
