Nigerians across social media platforms have berated popular content creator, Kuye Adegoke, aka Egungun of Lagos, for his leaked private video.
In the leaked clip making the rounds on social media, Egungun of Lagos was seen brushing his teeth during a video call with an unidentified woman while dressed in shorts and flashed his private part to the lady on the call.
Before the video surfaced online, his wife, Pashotah, had publicly addressed a blackmail attempt involving her husbandโs private videos.
She took to her Instagram on Sunday to defend the husband, saying, โHi guys, someone is blackmailing me with my husbandโs videos. My name is Pashotah and yโall know my husband is, obviously I know so many people have wanted to bring both of us down including guys and girls.
โI always choose to ignore but Iโm not ignoring today cuz the blackmailer didnโt go to Egungun of Lagos directly to blackmail him but he came to me instead cos (sic) he has a motive of putting me to shame like he said his messages above but one thing he (blackmailer) doesnโt know is that this relationship between myself and my husband is not just built today, this relationship has been coming for over 6-8 years when we both had nothing. This relationship is built on trust, understanding, loyalty, commitment and so many more. So there is nothing that can bring us down, not even now.โ
However, this development has sparked widespread reactions online, with many questioning Egungunโs earlier image as a family-oriented man.
This, netizens believed, has cast aspersions on his wife for her staunch defense of their marriage with some concluding that Egungunโs action is a betrayal of his wifeโs trust, others pointed to the possibility of the video being a misinterpretation or an old clip intended to tarnish his image.
A user who identified as #Dr Penking on X.com wrote, โSo Egungun wife watched that video and still had the temerity to come out and defend him? I thought we all agreed that Nigerian women now know their worth. Where was she when that decision was made?ย โ
Another user, Peace Ighodaro, said, โEgungunโs wife is the perfect definition of an understanding wife.โ
A Facebook user, Billzcollecshun, who also spoke on the matter, wrote, โWomen supporting men in the mud, she must have left their association overnight.โ
Mercy Akuma in her opinion, said, โEgungun wife has every right to stick to her man no matter what she seesItโs her choice.โ
Meanwhile, a user with the name, Mr Afowose opined, โSo she should leave him and go where?
โYo, another man that would still cheat and not love her like her husband is doing? The fact that yโall think a man cheating and a woman cheating is the same will always be funny because women will choose a cheater who is taking care of her 50 times over a broke niqqa.โ
Another user on X.com, who tweeted with the name #Chance Da Mayor, said, โWait oh! una want make she leave her husband? Her place is with her husband oh forget the blackmailer issue. I respect her defence.โ
Jimmy01 in his remark said, โShe knows she has a lot to loose if she comes out offensively of her husband,and to the media,she has to be defensive of her husband and behind,something is really hitting her so hard,cos wtf her husband private vid is up for everyone to see on the mediaโฆ.Hell No.โ
David Isemin wrote, โShe would have just stayed silent on the matter. That would have been a more better damage control.โ
As of the time of filing this report, Egungun of Lagos has yet to address the controversy, and his wife has not released any additional statement.
