Eniola Fagbemi, the popular Nigerian herbalist known as “Sisi Alagbo,” and her husband, Adesola Akeem, have issued public apologies after a private sex video involving the couple and a third woman was leaked online.
The explicit recording, which showed all three participants naked, spread widely on social media earlier this week, prompting intense public scrutiny and criticism.
In a statement posted on Facebook on Wednesday, Sisi Alagbo acknowledged her mistake, expressed remorse, and asked for forgiveness from her supporters. The following day, her husband released a separate apology, accepting full responsibility for what he described as “disappointing and embarrassing” behaviour that fell short of the moral standards expected of him.
Adesola’s statement emphasized his commitment to accountability and personal growth. He wrote, “I am writing with a strong sense of responsibility and genuine regret to sincerely apologise to my family, friends, business partners, religious leaders, fans, loved ones, and the whole Nigerian public for the recent incident involving a leaked sex scandal.” He added that he understood the hurt caused by his actions and the disappointment felt by those who have trusted him.
The apology continued: “To my family, I am really sorry for the pain and sadness this has caused you. To my friends and colleagues, I’m sorry if this has affected our relationships or damaged our good name. I understand the seriousness of this misconduct and the importance of holding people accountable, especially to religious groups and moral organisations.”
Adesola concluded by pledging to use the episode as a period of reflection and improvement. “I am using this time to reflect, learn, and grow as a person. I want to make better choices, repair the trust that has been lost, and remain honest and true in both my personal and professional life going forward. I kindly ask for your support, forgiveness, and ongoing prayers as I strive to improve myself and become a better person.”
The incident has sparked broader discussions in Nigeria about privacy, digital consent, and the responsibilities of public figures. No legal action has been reported so far, and both parties have indicated a desire to move forward and restore their reputations.
Media Talk Africa will continue to monitor developments and any potential legal or regulatory responses to the leak.
