Sometime last week Singer Seyi Shay met the president at a youth forum organised by the presidency and she got whipped online for the way she was dressed to meet Mr. President. After the backlash, Seyi Shay is in damage control mode and emphasized she wasn't trying to seduce the president.
We at Afrinode think the president's aides should request to see what these girls will be wearing before allowing them near the president. First it was Omoni Oboli, now it's Seyi Shay. Ladies what you thinking?
See what she said after the cut.
“I am a very respectable young lady and I was not in any way trying to seduce the President with the outfit I wore. I had two outfits for the event, one was for my performance and the other was worn after I performed. The dress I was pictured in with the President was what I wore during my performance.
I came on stage and greeted everyone according to their culture and I did the same for Mr. President. He was impressed and he asked where and how I knew how to greet in his native dialect and I said I learnt it. That was what brought about the giggling and smiles in the picture.
I’m a performer and what I do on stage doesn’t reflect my everyday life. I had two outfits on that day and it was a youth event. Who wouldn’t feel overwhelmed meeting the President? Well, I did and I felt honoured because it is not every day you get to meet the president of your country.”
