Nigeria music legend, Queen Salawa Abeni, shut a blackmailer identified as Jason on Wednesday when she posted pictures which the blackmailer was threatening to put on the internet.
In defiance of her blackmailer, Salawa Abeni called his bluff by posting the details of their WhatsApp exchange on her official Instagram page.
“Good Morning my family, friends and Fans,” she said, adding that, “I have something very important to tell you and I will really appreciate your audience.”
“I am very disappointed that someone somewhere will try to tarnish my image and threaten to destroy my career of over 45 years.
“This morning, I received messages from somebody threatening to expose very old pictures of me and in the process, blackmailing me for money.
Salawa Abeni then added that, “These could have been pictures of me in the hospital or even with my partner, but is this what has become of us??
“I plead with everybody out there to be very careful as our current situation has made people very desperate.
“I am almost 60 years old, I have worked very hard and made a name for myself for somebody to believe that they can threaten and trample on my feelings, this is very sad.
“So I have decided to share the messages and pictures sent by this person with everyone for you all to see! Thank you and God bless you! For you the blackmailer, I refuse to be bullied by you as I’m sure that I’m old enough to be your Mother,” she said in her post.
