Man Calls Out Papaya Ex Over Alleged Three-Month Unpaid Salary For Sister

A man has taken to social media to call out popular socialite and influencer Papaya Ex over allegations that she has failed to pay his sister, who works as her personal assistant, for three consecutive months.

According to the man, the salary dispute stems from an incident in which Papaya lost her iPhone 16 Pro Max at a movie premiere earlier this year. He claimed that following the loss of the phone, the influencer stopped paying his sister’s monthly salary of N120,000, yet his sister has continued to show up for work.

The situation reportedly took a more dramatic turn when the man visited Papaya to plead on his sister’s behalf. He alleged that rather than resolve the matter, the socialite seized his phone, a development he described as particularly damaging given that he works as a mobile videographer and relies on his device for his livelihood.

The allegations have drawn attention online, especially given that Papaya had earlier made headlines when she publicly offered a N700,000 reward to anyone who could help recover her lost phone, a stark contrast to the N360,000 in unpaid wages her PA is said to be owed.
