Pashotah, partner of content creator Kuye Adegoke known popularly as Egungun of Lagos has disclosed a blackmail attempt involving a private video of her husband.
Taking to Instagram on Sunday, she claimed that the blackmailer reached out to her directly, issuing threats to release the video unless specific demands were met.
In her statement, Pashotah asserted that while she had previously ignored similar incidents, she felt compelled to address this situation because the threats were targeted at her.
Screenshots included in her post showed messages from the alleged blackmailer, demanding action to prevent the video from being circulated online.
She clarified that the video in question was a private recording meant for her but had somehow been accessed by an unauthorised individual.
Pashotah expressed confidence in her husband’s integrity, citing her active involvement in his work and affirming her knowledge of his character.
Dismissing the blackmail attempt as futile, she stated that it would neither affect her marriage nor pressure her into complying with the demands.
“This relationship is built on trust, understanding, loyalty, and commitment,” she said.
Part of her statement reads, “Hi guys, I’m Pashotah, and y’all know who my husband is. Obviously, I know so many people have tried to bring us down, including guys and girls.
“But I always choose to ignore. I’m not ignoring today because this blackmailer didn’t go to Egungun of Lagos directly but came to me instead, intending to shame me.
“What he doesn’t know is that this relationship isn’t just built on love or started today. It has been over 6–8 years in the making, through times when we had nothing.
“This relationship is built on trust, understanding, loyalty, and commitment. Nothing can bring us down—not now, not ever.”
