"No Intention To Seduce The President" - Seyi Shay Speaks Out On Her Controversial Dress

Barcadi Breezer ambassador and sensational singer, Singer Seyi Shay has spoken out on her controversial photo that went viral few days ago. She said she had no intention of seducing the President when she wore the short dress to sing and greet the President at the #MeetThePresident Youth event in Lagos last Saturday. Below is her statement;

"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,” she told Punch.
