The veteran musician has now dismissed saying this. In an interview with Saturday Punch, the 58-year-old singer said he never said such.
“My friends and I were sitting down discussing about some young artistes and they were criticising them. I told them not to criticise the young singers because they would outgrow whatever they are doing now. I told them that it was youthful exuberance and that someone like me could relate with it because I had passed through more than what they are facing. I did not even mention anything about
women. It is only a mad man that will say that I slept with 100 women. “Even if I did, is it something to be proud of? I never made any statement like that” said Sir Shina Peters.
Sir Shina Peters said he gets misquoted a lot because of his stardom.
“It is okay but it is part of the price you pay for stardom and the matter is between God and the person who wrote the story. The price that I have paid for stardom is very high. I have had an unfair share of bad press but they are still my friends because we cannot do without them. Some asked why I did not refute the story immediately and I replied that other journalists would still come and I would explain my own part of the story” said Sir Shina Peters.
He further said “People have published stories that I have been arrested for fraud. Ironically I had a show which was arranged by the Nigerian Stock Exchange and the late Ibru was in attendance. When the man was driving to the venue, he heard the news that I was arrested for fraud but when he got to the hall, he saw me. When he asked me, I explained to him that it was one of those things.”
Sir Shina Peters who is the father of ace music video director Clarence Peters in 2014 revealed he has autographed many breasts in his glittering career.
