Tonto Dikeh Warns TikTok Impersonator
OpenLife Nigeria reports that Nollywood actress and renowned philanthropist Tonto Dikeh has come out strongly against a scammer on TikTok who is fraudulently using her identity to exploit fans and extort money.
In a widely circulated video posted on Tuesday, January 21, 2026, Dikeh disclosed that authorities, including the police, are actively pursuing the female suspect responsible for the deception.
The impostor has been misappropriating Dikeh’s name, photos, and video clips to pose as the genuine actress rather than as a mere fan account—while soliciting funds from unsuspecting followers.
“We’ve been monitoring you closely, and I know you’re a woman,” Dikeh declared in the clip. “The police are already on your trail.”
She accused the fraudster of not only victimizing her supporters but also directly harming her by stealing and repurposing her personal content for illicit gain.
Uncompromising in her stance, the actress made it clear that no amount of public sympathy or online backlash would deter her from seeking full accountability.
“When we apprehend you, no one is stepping in to rescue you—only Jesus can,” she warned firmly.
“I’m not someone who bows to social media pressure. You will face jail time without question.”
Dikeh took the opportunity to caution her genuine fans and the wider public to stay alert in the digital space.
She reminded everyone that she never requests donations or financial help through direct messages, private chats, or unverified profiles, urging thorough verification of any account claiming to represent her before any interaction or transfer of funds.
TONTO DIKEH’S SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION IN LATE 2025
In late 2025—particularly around December—Tonto Dikeh publicly shared a profound personal testimony of becoming born again and surrendering her life to Jesus Christ.
During appearances connected to platforms like NSPPD (New Season Prophetic Prayers and Declarations) and Streams of Joy, she openly confessed to overcoming deep-rooted struggles that had plagued her for years.These included a 27-year smoking habit, heavy alcohol consumption, habitual masturbation, and intense, what she termed “demonic,” anger that affected her relationships and well-being.
She described the moment of salvation as ushering in a powerful revival and complete deliverance, crediting God’s intervention for breaking these chains and granting her lasting peace, healing, and freedom.Since embracing this renewed faith, Dikeh—now often referring to herself with titles like “King Tonto” or emphasizing her identity in Christ has focused on living a transformed life centered on gratitude, spiritual growth, and service.
She has used her platform to testify about redemption, grace, and God’s faithfulness, inspiring many with stories of how her narrative has been rewritten through divine mercy. This shift has been evident in her public engagements, social media posts, and advocacy work, all infused with a strong emphasis on faith and positive living.
