Lagos Nigeria- A popular actor, Bolanle Ninalowo, aka Nino B, has said that he was not the one masturbating in a video that went viral on the Internet. He added that the tattoo on his hand and that of the man in the video were not the same.

However, despite dissociating himself from the video, many have continued to argue on whether he was truly the one in it or not, with some saying that the man in the video had the same type of physique as Nino B.

In the video, the man was seen lying naked on a bed, masturbating, as he moaned in pleasure.

Taking to his Instagram page on Saturday, January 6, 2024, Ninalowo said, “My ears are full already. Everybody has been calling me. People are commenting on my page about a video that is circulating about some guy who’s having fun and enjoying himself, but that’s not me.

“And I guess having a tattoo is now wahala (a problem). You guys should look at my tattoo. I saw the video and I understand that the guy does have a band (tattoo), but I respect myself too much for that. I will never disappoint myself, my family, and my fans like that.”

The actor then called on bloggers and social media influencers to stop spreading such rumors about him.

Reacting to the incident, an actress Biodun Okeowo, wrote on Instagram, “I said it; the tattoo is different, but Nigerians want to believe what they want to believe.

“That’s how they believed a chat with an erased name and handle to be from me to a guy who is just like a brother to me, and young enough to be my son if I had given birth earlier. God will help celebrities; it’s what we signed up for.”

On his part, a former Big Brother Naija contestant, Uti Nwachukwu wrote, “If I were you, I would claim the video.”

A popular comedian, Gbenga Adeyinka, wrote, “They want to implicate my brother. I am proud of you always. Keep the flag flying.”

However, as far as one Picolo @9japutin was concerned, the actor was the one in the video. He wrote, “He is the person in that masturbating video (sic). There is nothing you can tell me.”

Other celebs that have had sex tape scandals include actress, Moyo Lawal; and singers, Ikuforiji Olaitan, aka Oxlade, and Tiwa Savage.
