Tiwa Savage, the renowned Nigerian singer and songwriter, recently disclosed in an interview with Angie Martinez on Power 105.1 in New York that she took decisive action to protect herself and her family after falling victim to an attempt at blackmail.
She revealed that she paid an Information Technology expert to remove an explicit video of her from the internet.
The video, which threatened to tarnish her reputation and career, was recorded without her consent during a past relationship.
In the interview, Tiwa Savage expressed her concern that the video might one day be seen by her son.
This fear prompted her to take immediate action to ensure its removal from the internet. She revealed that she hired an IT expert to not only remove the video from the internet but also to erase it from all mobile devices across the country.
Tiwa emphasized that her biggest fear was the potential psychological impact on her son if he were to ever come across the video.
The ordeal began for Tiwa Savage in October 2021 when she first announced that she was being blackmailed with the sex tape.
The incident had serious consequences for her career, leading to the loss of several ambassadorial roles.
However, by taking proactive measures, she has successfully removed the video from circulation, sparing herself and her family further distress.
