On Monday, Nigerians woke up to the news of popular lifestyle content creator, Kuye Adegoke, aka Egungun of Lagos, becoming the centre of attention after his private sex tape was leaked online.
The leaked video, which quickly gained traction on social media on Monday, shows Egungun on a video call with an unidentified light-skinned woman.
In the clip, he is seen brushing his teeth before briefly exposing his private parts, all while dressed in shorts.
This has sparked controversy. However, his wife, Pashotah, stepped forward to defend him. She labelled the incident a blackmail attempt.
Blackmail allegations
The tape emerged shortly after Pashotah shared a statement on Instagram revealing a blackmail attempt.
Unbreakable marriage
The content creator’s wife also clarified that the video was a private recording meant for her and not intended for public consumption, adding that she owes no one an explanation.
She stated, “I’m publicly saying this, and even if he has, life goes on because you can’t shame me with it. I shoot 80% of his videos, I walk up to girls with big buttocks and boobs to shoot with my husband, I’ve met with 80 per cent of the girls in his interviews, and I made him start this interview series with BBL girls. My husband won’t say anything about this matter because they’re not blackmailing him, but me, his wife.
“This blackmailer shouldn’t even think this video will break my marriage with him because it won’t. I’m not bothered about it, so he (the blackmailer) shouldn’t expect a penny from me because I have none to give. I don’t need anybody’s opinions, as our life is being put out as another story or gossip of the day. But this is me explaining the situation to our lovers and those who look up to us. This is a private video meant for his wife and me while he was travelling, but it got out one way or another. It’s an old video, but I don’t care. All I know is that I trust my man.
”That doesn’t change the fact that I’ll still post my man tomorrow and write ‘LOML’ as the caption because I know he loves me so much and will never hurt me (and vice versa). I’m just dropping this here because that’s what the blackmailer also plans to do if I don’t give him money.”
Egungun reacts
After the scandal unfolded, Egungun of Lagos, seemingly unaffected, posted a video on Instagram.
In the clip, he was seen dancing with a woman in his living room to Zlatan and Olamide’s song “Gimme Your Love.”
His post, accompanied by a laughing emoji, suggested that he was unbothered by the controversy surrounding the leaked tape.
The social media influencer also made another video showing bundles of money being put into a car for an advert without addressing the matter.
