UK-based socialite, Olinda Chapel-Nkomo, has claimed that Tallyn Ndudzo verbally and physically assaulted her during a scheduled meeting with promoters.
The meeting was arranged to discuss Zari, who is due to perform at an upcoming event.
Olinda alleged that Tallyn was already present when she arrived at the meeting, and she refused to sit at the same table citing a history of dishonesty during her prǝgnɑncy.
She said that Tallyn was intoxicated and attempted to attack her, resulting in bleeding gums and bruises on her mouth.
The altercation was recorded on CCTV, and Chapel-Nkomo called the police.
She further claimed that Tallyn made false accusations about her spreading HIV and having ɑffɑirs with various artists.
“I had a pre-arranged meeting with the promoters that are bringing in Zari, but they ended up arriving later than expected. I checked myself into a hotel while waiting for them. Unfortunately, my phone goes into Do not Disturb mode at 10pm and the only person that can get through are my emergency contacts.
“I fell asleep and only heard the phone when I received a call from Sean at 00.26am saying people were looking for me and have been waiting to have the meeting and I seem to have disappeared.
“I called the team and made my way to them. Only to find Tallyn sitting at the table. I asked why she was part of the meeting and she said she speaks on behalf of WorldRemit and that they want to sponsor the show. It’s a lie as WorldRemit would follow the correct process with contracts etc.
“I told my two business partners that I have a bad history with Tallyn because of the lies she created when I was prǝgnɑnt with my daughter and that I would never sit at the same table as Tallyn and would never do business with her.
“Tallyn was intoxicated and she got up and wanted to attack me. Fortunately, two guys blocked her and a second restrained her. I took my bag to leave and I said I would not be reduced to her level.
“She went on to fight almost four men and they chose not to fight back as they would be in trouble if police got involved. She finally managed to get to me and she punched my mouth and my gums were bleeding. I had bruises on my mouth, she tried grabbing my hand and hurt my wrist.
“The guys jumped back into action and restrained her. At this point I then called the police who could hear her shouting insults.
“She made so many accusations that I am spreading HIV, and that I slǝpt with Andy Muridzo and other artists when they came to the UK. I have never met these people in my life. She called me broke and she said ndiri bishu sleeping with everyone.
“She went on to accuse my husband of wanting her thinking it would trigger me to react just like she did in 2018. All of this is on CCTV and she was trying to grab knives and bottles because we were in a restaurant,” Olinda said in a statement.
