Ralph Niyi, a veteran actor, has opened up about being blackmailed with threats of his nudes being leaked by an unidentified person.

Niyi revealed in an Instagram video that the blackmailer had threatened to release his nudes if he did not grant his request.

Althopugh he didn’t disclose the exact figure the blackmailer demanded, he however, mentioned that he told the blackmailer to carry on with his threat.

In his words;

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.

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.
