Eniola Fagbemi, popular social media personality, better known as Sisi Alagbo, has apologised for the leaked threesome sex tape involving her, husband (Adesola Hakeem), and another woman.

Sisi Alagbo, popular on social media for selling herbal concoction, has received knocks from Nigerians who have condemned her for the video.

Speaking following the rains of condemnations that have trailed the video, Fagbemi revealed the struggles she’s going through, adding that she has been unable to sleep for days and that even sleeping medications had not worked for her since the video broke out on the internet.

Taking to her verified Facebook account, the internet sensation wrote, “I own my mistakes, and I apologize with all sincerity for the video circulating online. I am deeply sorry to everyone who felt disappointed in me.

“This is a great phase for me, and I pray for God’s forgiveness and my fans’ forgiveness, please let’s move on past this because this media is where I get little support to feed, pls don’t condemn me or castigate me am already passing through a lot,

‘I can’t eat or sleep for days, even sleeping meds aren’t working for me anymore, I am deeply sorry, everyone. Please forgive me, I don’t want to injure myself, it’s only the little strength I have.”

Fagbemi broke into the internet after showcasing her craft and promoting her grandmother’s business to the world, including China and Qatar.

She again became a social media sensation after a heart-warming encounter with Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen in Morocco, at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

In the short video she shared online, she respectfully knelt to greet the football star, and the video quickly went viral, sparking widespread reactions and conversations across social platforms.

Responding to critics who questioned her action at the time, she wrote, “You are dragging me because I knelt down to greet Osimhen. I did not know that being respectful is now a crime. Osimhen is wealthier and more famous than me. Do you even know how elites and influential people all over the world are eager to meet him? For Osimhen to come down to my level — me, an ordinary agbo hawker from the trenches — I need to give him maximum respect.

“Just the video I posted, I already know what I have gained from it. People from Ibadan have told me that all the agbo in my store have been sold out. Everyone in Morocco is rushing to taste the agbo I brought. If I see Osimhen again, I will kneel down to greet him as a proper Yoruba girl that I am. I am a beautiful story.”

For Zaynab, philanthropy is not a seasonal obligation or a public relations gesture; it is a way of life. True to her enduring spirit of generosity, she marked her birthday not with chandeliers and champagne, but with open arms and a giving heart—celebrating with the needy, the forgotten and the vulnerable.

From distributing food items and essential supplies to sharing warm embraces and reassuring words, she turned what could have been a private celebration into a communal blessing. For many beneficiaries, her presence was more precious than the gifts she brought. She did not merely give; she connected. She listened. She cared.

Those who know her say this is vintage Zaynab—graceful yet grounded, elegant yet empathetic. A woman who understands that true royalty is not defined by status but by service. In her quiet but impactful way, she continues to demonstrate that the greatest wealth one can possess is a generous spirit.
