Tiwa Savage Leaked Sex Video: Dealing with Blackmailers

Published

To blame a victim of sextortion instead of dealing with the sextortionist is a clear sign of misplacement of priority.

Sextortion is the practice of extorting money or sexual favours from someone by threatening to reveal evidence of their sexual activity. It can also be called blackmail. Perpetrators of this act are called sextortionist. We have witnessed blackmailers leak the videos of victims upon their refusal to comply with their (the blackmailer’s) exploitative demands. To get these videos, some of these blackmailers go to great lengths to invade the victims’ privacy or disguise as a lover to get their victims to willingly release their sexual videos or take the video by themselves in the middle of a romantic affair.

According to Brooking Study, 71% of cases involve only victims under the age of 18. 14% involve a mix of minor and adult victims. 12% involve only adult victims, and nearly all adult victims are female, but both minor girls and boys are victimised.

Recently, the sex tape of an afrobeat musician, Tiwa Savage, was leaked after she refused to succumb to a blackmailer’s exploitative demand. Most times, when these videos are leaked, victims are faced with backlashes and questions that scream “IT IS ALL YOUR FAULT”. Questions like “why should there be a video in the first place?” Rather than dealing with the perpetrator, we focus on the victim, especially in Nigerian society.

To blame a victim of sextortion instead of dealing with the sextortionist is a clear sign of misplacement of priority. If we are so passionate to pass a bill against homosexuality because we firmly believe it is an abominable act, should we not be so passionate about handling sextortion? Or do we just, like hypocrites, select what suits our image and morals and despise the wellbeing of the citizens?

Ask the average victim about the reason behind their hesitation to make a police report and find out their fear of how they would be ridiculed and the matter taken lightly. This has been long-standing insanity in our society. If we proritised mental health in our society, there would be a pronounced move to suffocate the ideology of sextortion.

Concerning the blackmailer, ensuring they face some suitable consequences for their actions is important. However, we must understand that just punishing a criminal does not necessarily erase the crime itself. It is so easy to tag these blackmailers as wicked; but beyond the emotions, we must recognise that even as they face the consequences of their actions, they also need to be assisted with the service of a psychotherapist to facilitate a positive change in their behaviour.

  Curated by Grubido founder and Culinary Cultural Curator Kavachi Ukegbu, the annual celebration of west African cuisine and artistry will once again open its doors to patrons to witness the delights of creating and eating Fufu (a starchy, dough-like food that is a staple in many West and Central African countries), and its delicious and diverse pairings of soups and stews that originate from various parts of the continent, and uniquely compliment the beloved food staple as a complete meal. The event will also celebrate the observance of National Fufu Day  in the United States on August 11th.

  From the process of how different types of fufu are grown and manufactured, to the careful guidance on properly preparing the fufu to be eaten, the ‘Art of Fufu’ Food & Art showcase will give patrons a full circle perspective and appreciation for the food staple that has gained global popularity on social media and in many countries around the world.

  Attendees will be treated to fufu and soup samples, live Afrobeats music, an impressive display of fufu inspired artwork and collectables from over the years, and the opportunity to purchase Grubido food products, t-shirts, and the official The Art of Fufu cookbook. Originally published and released by Chef Kavach in 2021, “The Art of Fufu is a fascinating and informative guide to fufu, one of the most delicious and beloved staple foods of West Africans.” All cookbook purchases at the event will be signed by Chef Kavachi.

Entry for this event is free to all guests, but RSVP is strictly required in advance. To RSVP for the upcoming Art of Fufu Food & Art show, please visit the official website online at www.TheArtofFufu.com, or contact Grubido at (832) 818-6847.
