Deezell had earlier released a statement denying leaking the video as suggested by some people on social media.

He said: “My attention has been drawn to a certain nude video of a popular Hausa Actress Maryam Booth circulating on social media platforms, coupled with a false allegation on my person that I leaked the video. Unfortunately, these misguided elements and agents of destruction failed woefully to furnish any evidences and particulars that link me with the said leaked video in circulation.

“As good faith requires an answer, I wish to make it clear that, at all material time, I did not leak the alleged video in circulation on social media and to the best of my knowledge, I do not know who leaked the video.

“As a Muslim, I know that it is against the Holy Qur’an and teachings of our Noble Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) to spread out or expose wrongful action/deeds of another to the public, more especially on social media with sole aim of causing harm.

“Again, these outrageous allegations made against me on social media of a trending unclad video of a Muslim sister, are completely false in all ramification and I want everyone to know that this accusation is false in every aspect.

“Although, the reason for this false allegation against me is not within my knowledge, I wish to call on those responsible for this false allegation to withdraw their statements and apologise via the same social media platform within 12 hours with immediate effect. Failure to do so, I will be left with no other option but to take proper legal step to protect my hard earned reputation and personality in question because of your false allegations.

“Finally, I wish to sympatize with the victim and urge her to investigate the source of the leaked video in circulation and take proper legal action to ensure justice against the perpetrators.

“OfficialDeezell.”
