Raph Niyi, the Nigerian actor, has raised an alarm over what he described as a threat to leak his nude video.
The film star opened up about his dilemma in a video uploaded on Instagram on Monday.
Raph claimed someone has been threatening to release his nudes if he does not grant his request.
“It is with a heavy heart that I come to you to tell you that I have a blackmailer on my tail, who is claiming to have a nude video of me,” the actor said.
“And for three days now, he has been threatening to go online if I don’t give him something.
“I am not one that will give in to blackmail. I have told him to go ahead.
“I have already spoken to a couple of friends and I want to thank them for giving me words of encouragement. My wife, and my family, I already told them when this happened. So please I just want to let you know.
“It is a perilous time out there. People are doing anything just to get money.
“In my line of work, anything can happen. I make videos. If by omission or commission, happen to get my nude, and then you are now saying you want money with it, I don’t think it will happen with me.”

The actor won’t be the first entertainer who has opened up about a nude video of them being in the public domain.
Earlier, BNXN, the Nigerian singer, stated that he was “heartbroken” after a video of him found its way to social media.
