Nigerian singer Fireboy DML has revealed how a post on his Instagram story sparked panic among members of his family after he was seen holding a cigarette in his mouth.

Speaking on the Afrobeats Podcast, the singer said he posted a snippet on his Instagram Story while holding the cigarette as part of a showbiz moment.

According to Fireboy, the post did not go down well with his family, who quickly reacted in their WhatsApp group.
