Nigerian social media comedian Lizzy Jay, real name Adebola Adeyela, has released a video on Instagram alleging that someone is threatening to leak a private video of her.

The comedian explained that she had been ill with skin rashes, haemorrhoids, and bleeding, and had discussed these issues with her doctor, who also happens to be a close friend.

However, because of the sensitive nature of the situation, the doctor requested screenshots of the video to provide a diagnosis rather than a physical examination.

She expressed her fear and dismay at the situation and requested prayers from her followers.According to Lizzy Jay, the individual in question has commented on her social media posts, stating that they possess her nudes and even going so far as to send her emails containing screenshots of the private video.

The individual has allegedly threatened to post the video publicly, and even contacted her on a private number.

Lizzy Jay responded by daring the individual to make good on their threats, insisting that she would not be extorted and that she would find the individual with the last of her money.

She also claimed that the individual had hacked one of her email accounts, which was then used to access her Snapchat account.
