It was a discussion I was having with some friends about closeted gay activities we'd heard rumors about
On seeing that, the officer searching my phone said "this one na gay"
I was like "Gay????" and I laughed cuz the whole thing was ridiculous.

They told me to add amounts to the front of the names too and recorded me confessing (at gun point).
When they saw my account balance, they demanded for half a million, saying they would send this video to the brands I work for, post it online and they’ll lock me for days

Afterwards, they told me it’s better to do yahoo than to be gay, coz according to them "yahoo go dey pay better"
I didn't want to take any steps. I just wanted to carry on tweeting as though all was well, but it's not.
