Actor and well-known media personality Uti Nwachukwu claims Ghanaian TikToker Wesley Kess stole the idea for his birthday photo session.
Uti criticized Wesley on his Instagram page for stealing the concept of the photo session he planned for his 40th birthday party in August 2022.
Remember how Uti wore a white satin cloth across his body, a white scarf around his head, and little jewelry in the Jesus-themed image?
It’s interesting to note that Wesley, who turned 19 on Thursday, April 19, uploaded a picture of himself celebrating in all-white attire.
This didn’t sit well with Uti, who expressed his disappointment at Wesley for’stealing’ his idea without giving credit to him and his photographer.
Uti wrote;
“At first I laughed . Cos what in da ‘what I ordered’ is this ? THE ALACRITY
But it’s easy to Laugh when it’s not your sweat and brain power that has been preyed on. My Photographer @idaraadiakpan_ /@sbdstudios_ is Livid ! THIS WAS ALL HER IDEA ooo ! I was just her muse. IT WAS HER GIFT TO ME FOR MY 40th! CHALEEEE THIS IS PART OF HER LIFE’S WORK.
