Self-proclaimed TikTok president Nyako has once again spoken out about the emotional and financial toll caused by the leak of her private photos, which she claims were shared online by fellow content creator Big Daddy. In a tearful revelation, Nyako said the incident not only affected her personal life but also cost her opportunities to work with brands and companies.
The mother of three recalled how her career was on the rise before the controversial leak damaged her reputation. Nyako expressed deep regret, saying the exposure made it nearly impossible for her to be considered for endorsement deals, asking which company would be willing to work with someone whose intimate images are available online. She reflected on how things might have turned out differently had she chosen to stay private and not engage with people she believed would use her vulnerability against her.
Nyako has previously urged lawmakers to create tougher regulations to protect people, especially women, from such invasions of privacy. She stated that the leak forced her to retreat from the spotlight, and at one point, she even ended up living in a shelter due to financial struggles. During a TikTok live session, she emotionally recounted the pain and shame the incident brought to her and her children, adding that Big Daddy had “destroyed her life.”
Despite the public accusations, Big Daddy denied being responsible for the viral spread of Nyako’s private photos. He admitted to sharing the photo with only one person, a friend named Meru Pretty, who had asked him to confirm if he indeed had such content. He insisted that he never intended to harm Nyako and said the backlash nearly gave him a heart attack. According to him, he could never knowingly embarrass a woman.
Nyako, however, was not moved by his apology. She questioned why he would even have such a photo in the first place and doubted his intentions. She made it clear that she no longer considered Big Daddy part of her life and stated that everything between them had been recorded. Her children, she said, were the most affected by the scandal.
The controversy has sparked heated reactions on social media, with some people sympathizing with Nyako, while others questioned the choices that led to the incident. Critics pointed out that such risks come with sharing sensitive content, while others condemned the act of betrayal and invasion of privacy.
Nyako has since expressed that she has moved on emotionally, even though the consequences of the incident continue to follow her. She remains vocal about her experience, using it as a cautionary tale and calling for systemic changes to protect victims of online exposure and cyberbullying.
