The person went further to tell the singer that if she does not want the photos released to the general public she should negotiate.

Communicating with Salawa through WhatsApp number +234813 180 2886, the blackmailer sent the singer two of the photos the person is claiming to be in his/her possession saying there is still more of it.

The person told the singer that the moment she plays ball with him/her and pay up the required amount, a video of the blackmailer burning all the photos will be sent to Salawa.

But rather than play ball, Salawa Abeni took to her social media handle, Instagram, to not only share her chat with the unnamed blackmailer, she also posted two photos the person is laying claim to as a means to siphon money from her.

The singer cried out that at her age, almost 60 years old, somebody will want to blackmail her with photos taken when she was younger just to tarnish her name and career she had built for over 45 years.
