Spyros sex tape
Singer Spyro, in a now-deleted Instagram Story post, alleged that someone threatened to release his sex tape.
He accused unnamed religious figures of using their faith to mask their deceitful actions.
The ‘Billing’ hitmaker wrote: “Don’t be deceived. The biggest scammers and liars are some top religious leaders. They commit evil, quote holy books to justify their wrongs, and then resort to emotional manipulation and threats. The deception is on another level. I once called someone out for wronging me. The next day, the person started quoting scriptures while also threatening to release a sex tape and claiming a girl was pregnant for me.
“I sent a message telling them to release the tapes—I can’t wait to watch them. To date, they haven’t released anything. Rubbish. At the same time, people have been calling me from all directions, urging me to let it go. I sincerely appreciate every single one of them because they genuinely care about my well-being. But till now, nothing has been done about it. This is how evil continues to thrive—because we stay silent. And the result is the Nigeria we have today.”
He added that he dared them to release the tape, but they never did.
Spyro gained fame with his song ‘Who Is Your Guy?’, first released in November 2022 and remixed with Tiwa Savage in March 2023.
