Ayra Starr to Reveal Lover in Upcoming Music Video
Nigerian music sensation Ayra Starr has announced plans to unveil her love interest in the music video for her hit single, Lagos Love Story.
The 22-year-old singer, known for keeping her personal life out of the public eye, has teased fans with the promise of a major revelation. Starr disclosed that her real-life partner would play the role of her love interest in the upcoming video, making it a deeply personal project.
In a statement, Starr explained her decision: “I want everything in this video to be real, and that includes using my true love as the vixen.”
The announcement has sparked excitement among her fans, who have long speculated about her private life. The move is seen as a bold and creative way to bridge her art with her personal experiences.
Lagos Love Story, which has already garnered significant attention for its heartfelt lyrics and Afrobeat rhythms, is expected to gain even more traction with this new development. Fans eagerly await the video’s release, which promises to offer an intimate glimpse into the singer’s life and love story.
Popular social critic Martins Otse, widely known as Verydarkman, has clarified that no funds have gone missing from his NGO’s account, revealing that the story was part of a planned ruse to test public reaction.
In a video posted on Tuesday, Verydarkman expressed his disappointment with Nigerians for jumping to conclusions without verifying facts, and for resorting to insults aimed at him and his family. He confirmed that his organization’s finances were secure, stating, “No money is missing, my money is secured. The way people are so excited about bad news is really sad.”
He explained that the N180 million claim, which he made last Friday, was part of an orchestrated stunt. “I told my website guy, ‘Shut the website, let us use this to catch cruise.’ Nobody bothered to ask for evidence; they just went with what was being said. I am so happy I did this,” he added, admitting that the whole situation was a test of how easily misinformation could spread.
The confusion began on Friday when Verydarkman posted on Instagram, claiming that his NGO’s account had been hacked and that N180 million had gone missing. The statement sparked widespread panic and outrage among his followers and the general public.
The social critic’s revelation has since stirred a mixed reaction online, with some praising him for exposing the gullibility of the public, while others criticized the stunt as misleading and irresponsible.
Despite the backlash, Verydarkman stood by his decision, asserting that it was a lesson in the dangers of rushing to judgment without proper investigation.
