Afrobeats singer Spyro has addressed speculation that he is the father of reality TV star Nengi Hampson’s newborn.
Nengi recently revealed that she welcomed her first child in February, sharing the news with heartfelt messages on social media.
Following her announcement, Spyro, who has openly expressed his admiration for the former Big Brother Naija star in the past, reposted her video and extended his congratulations.
However, his post fueled rumors, with some social media users speculating that he could be the child’s father.
In response, Spyro dismissed the claims, taking to his Instagram story to express his frustration.
“Nigerians, very ignorant set. Exactly why the rich get richer and the poor get poorer… But then again, what do I even know? Congratulations again, my Nengs,” he wrote.
Prior to this, there were reports alleging that Bayelsa State Governor Douye Diri was responsible for Nengi’s pregnancy. The governor, however, refuted the claims, describing them as politically motivated falsehoods spread by his opponents.
