‘You’re A Cradle Snatcher, Predator’ – Timini Egbuson’s Ex-Girlfriend Calls Him Out As She Warns Teenagers To Be Careful About Dating Older Men
Nollywood actor, Timini Egbuson’s former girlfriend, Lydia Balogun has called him out for targeting and dating naive teenagers.
Last year, the actor and Lydia went viral when it was revealed that the then 32-year-old actor was dating a 19-year-old woman. This led to a debate as people questioned if it’s appropriate, considering their age difference.
However in latest development, Lydia in a series of tweets shared on Monday, August 16 said Egbuson has become notorious for sleeping with anything that breaths.
She wrote;
Timini Egbuson you are a predator, a cradle snatcher, you’re a pervert and an all-round terrible person. Meeting this man, I had no clue about his sexual past or who he had been involved with, didn’t know anyone from his social circle. And now I know it is also intentional.
She went on to narrate how he intentionally found his way into her life and revealed that since their split, the actor has been on a mission to ruin her reputation.
Lydia claimed that Timini used to tell her that no one could ever love her again and he slutshamed her and also spoiled her name to people.
Read her full thread below;
As much as we want to believe that it’s okay for a girl/boy to get romantically/ sexually involved with someone in their 30’s or significantly older as long as they are ‘legal’ (18 upwards), it really isn’t. I’ll tell you from personal experience it is absolutely not okay.

In the unlikely chance you end up like Beyoncé and Jay-Z congrats however what is most likely going to happen is you will leave that relationship emotionally scarred. Older people have more experience in these things, no matter how smart or grown you think you are

– they’ve done this before is what I’ve learnt. They have the answers, they will gaslight , manipulate, frustrate and traumatize you. You don’t need it please protect yourself.

When he told me he’d make an exception for me despite how young I was (and I was like 19) I actually believe that and thought ‘wow he must really like me’, to any one that is in a similar situation with any man LMAO girl you’re not special, he doesn’t like you

– you just fit the standard. You didn’t meet him coincidentally, he went after you. He is a predator. Don’t let them steal your peace/ youth because they will frustrate you. I was completely new to the dating scene in Lagos, had no understanding of Nigerian men or knew anything

-about timini and his sexual past. I was told things and believed them. There are scarring things that happened in the relationship that I will not even get into because that is not the point.

Leaving you and now seeing that you have a pattern of going for MUCH younger babes is the problem, it is so frightening to witness. It is really not in my place to call any of these girls names but we know. Your friends know, streets know.

This is what all the other girls were speaking about that year, it was so easy to see them as ‘bitter’ and that’s what many people called them and will probably call me but I no send your papa. SO many girls romanticized my whole situation and need to know that there is a reason
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
– much older guys go for much younger babes and they did not meet you by coincidence. I am much more exposed now and see the way older men are out here ruining lives. Timini’s family/ friends were so nice to me after meeting everyone I didn’t want to make things awkward
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
-or gain enemies from people in your industry and especially your fans. So I never publicly fought you despite all the fucked up things you’ve done but I no send anybody again. You have used your influence to constantly put me down since I left you. It’s soooo funny to see how
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
– defend someone they don’t even personally know and I’m well aware of the backlash I’ll receive but I’ve personally had enough.
You have tried so hard to tarnish the tiny reputation I managed to build for myself. The amount of our friends that have come to tell me how you’ve— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
-been calling me a runz girl is stupid. Constantly spreading lies about me and trying to make me look bad but the tl wont see that one it’s me that’s bitter 😂 For whatever reason you’re angry at me that’s not my business but take that anger out on yourself
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
I never ever wanted any problems with you, even when people were spreading the gist about you and MUCH younger girls at first I hit you up to question and advise you; I have emails and texts of me just begging him to speak to a professional
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
because the things I was hearing weren’t normal. Only for you to STILL be dragging my name in the mud. Still going out of your way to hurt me. Imagine me calling timini to confront him about these things and he exploded (as he usually does) this man called me a harlot, told me
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
– no one could ever love me again and how I’m a joke because I’ve slept with the whole of lagos and I should ‘go kill myself’.
Not the first time he’s calling me names but I am completely livid considering how much I know about him now. Timini you have (and I mean— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
– I mean this so literally) slept with everything breathing in Lagos and Abuja and you think for one second that you can slut shame me ? 😭 it’s the irony for me. But more seriously it was another traumatic day (this was last week) because how can you tell a person who
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
-you’re aware of their suicidal past to ‘go kill herself’. Something I’ve been so open about. You’re not a victim timini, you’re a monster.
I’ve held back from making these statements because I didn’t want to look stupid but I’m not embarrassed to say I have learnt my lesson— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
When my past relationship became public and people had so much to say on the topic, I felt attacked and I didn’t understand. Now I do, for all the girls that spoke up on twitter with disgust I now understand your anger.
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
And to all his close female friends that see the BARELY legal girls he brings around, shame on you too. I’ve heard too many people call me a clout chaser and say I benefitted from the relationship/ cheating scandal it’s hilarious. Waking up to a million missed calls from family
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
and being scared about my school suspending/expelling me based on the controversy of the news is not fun. There’s no amount of followers or clout that can make up for the panic attacks that came from the whole situation, the money I’m spending in therapy
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
-and all the trauma I am facing till date.Don’t think many people will ever understand how hard even this is for me but that’s okay.
— L money (@lydiaaofficial) August 16, 2021
This man is fully aware that he took advantage of my naiveness and is doing the same to other girls and has told me I can’t do anything about all of this because he never thought I’d actually speak up lmaooo. Get me lit, motherfucker

Last year, Timini was a trending item on Twitter Nigeria for more than 10 hours after his girlfriend Lydia and another girl Toju got into a fight on the social media platform.
It was Toju and her friends who took to Twitter to allege that Lydia wanted to fight them for having an affair with her popular boyfriend.
Toju went on to claim that she has had sex with the actor several times and said she was ready to fight Lydia.
The drama caused drew reactions on Twitter as the actor stayed on the trends for a long time.
However, amid the latest development, the Elevator Baby actor has remained silent over the issue, as at the time of filing this report.
