Nigerian teenage comedian Emmanuella Samuel has denied allegations circulating on social media that she was staying in a hotel with a male companion.

The speculation arose following the viral spread of a video she posted, in which she is seen dancing in a bedroom.

Keen-eyed viewers spotted an individual lying on the bed, partially dressed, leading to assumptions that it was a man who had reserved the hotel room for her.

In response to the rumors, Emmanuella explained that the person in the video is actually a woman dressed in shorts.

A TikTok user, identified as Dolly, commented on the video, insinuating, “Man don go lodge Emmanuella.” In response, Emmanuella stated, “Man dey wear bum short ???”
