In a video circulating widely online, the woman alleged that she had been living independently in the United Kingdom before Johnson encouraged her to return to Lagos to build a future together.
She said the decision marked a major turning point in her life, as she left behind a new job and personal stability.
According to her account, the relationship deteriorated rapidly after her return.
She claimed that within two weeks, she discovered Johnson was involved with another woman, an experience she described as both shocking and deeply painful.
The woman further alleged that the entertainer later confirmed the end of their relationship through a voice note, stating his intention to move on with someone else.
She said the manner of the breakup, coupled with the timing, left her questioning his motives and sincerity.
In an emotional recount, she said the betrayal was particularly devastating given the length of their relationship and her support during his early career.
She added that she had initially resisted relocating to Nigeria to avoid dependency but eventually agreed after repeated assurances from Johnson.
A striking detail in her account involved a gift she claimed Johnson received from another woman, which she said prompted further suspicion.
Upon checking his phone, she alleged she discovered evidence of a separate relationship that had been ongoing for about a year.
She also stated that when confronted, Johnson showed little remorse and proceeded to end the relationship decisively, returning her belongings shortly afterwards.
The claims have sparked intense reactions online, with many social media users expressing sympathy for the woman while others have called for caution, noting that Johnson has not publicly responded to the allegations.
