“He Asked Me To Meet Him In A Hotel” – Lady Drops Fresh Allegation Against Egungun Amid Tape Leak
In a related news, a woman known as @theboujeegirlie on X shared a past experience with him.
The lady alleged that in 2020, Egungun invited her to a hotel in Surulere, promising to introduce her to Nigerian artist, Zlatan.
She detailed their history, noting that they became acquainted after they had a viral video together during their time at the University of Lagos.
At that time, the lady averred she was actively pursuing her music career and believed Egungun’s claim that Zlatan, who had recently promoted Egungun’s act, would help her career.
However, she expressed skepticism over his intentions, particularly because he asked that they meet in a hotel.
In her words:
“Egungun of Lagos wey tell me make I come hotel for Surulere say he wan introduce me to Zlatan??? God will punish that boy sehh 😂😂😂😂
For context: We were in Unilag together and this happened 2020 after Zlatan had just promoted him in his masquerade costume. He came to my hostel on my birthday and we even had a viral video together lmaoo.
I was actively pursuing a music career then and we had become acquaintances after the viral video, so he wanted to “introduce me to Zlatan” at a hotel in Surulere lmaoo 💀💀.”
In reaction to the post, a netizen, @Kelvdunski, downplayed her concerns, suggesting there was no cause for alarm if it was simply a hotel meeting.
However, @theboujeegirlie clarified that it was not just a general meeting area but a designated room, which raised suspicions.
She chose to end the discussion by emphasizing,
“Let’s just let bygones be bygones. 2020 is a long time ago.”

BBNaija Star ELOSWAG
BBNaija star, Eloka Nwamu, popularly known as Eloswag in 2024 joined the growing list of Nigerian celebrities whose intimate videos have been leaked online.
The Delta State-born reality star sparked reactions online following the leak of his intimate video with an unidentified woman trended online a few weeks back.
The explicit footage, which features the 30-year-old in a compromising situation with a female partner, became a hot topic after it was released by popular blog Gistlover.
The incident has ignited conversations and debates among fans and observers, with some speculating whether the leak was a deliberate attempt to regain relevance after his career had become stagnant since his time on Big Brother Naija or a response to claims about his sexuality after Gistlover listed him as one of the gay celebrities in Nigeria.
Reacting to the leak video in a now-deleted post, Eloswag wrote:
“I posted a video mistakenly on my Snapchat by 3 a.m. and deleted it immediately. Guess who has the video? GISTLOVER? How? Please, can I sue? Because it doesn’t make sense.”
