“If e reach your turn” – A lady and her husband decide to play on the swings at their children’s school at the end of a PTA meeting as part of an ongoing TikTok Challenge (WATCH)

A mom has gone viral after sharing a lighthearted video of her and her husband joyfully playing on the swings of their children’s school, after attending a PTA meeting at the school.

The couple who had just wrapped up a regular parent-teachers association meeting decided to take a quick detour to the school’s playground, making a beeline for the swing to have fun before retiring home.

The caption of her video, “If e reach your turn finish PTA meeting Dey go house, no enjoy school fees wey you dey pay too”, showed that the video was part of an ongoing viral trend on TikTok.

The trend involved people performing actions, most would deem socially unacceptable, and then telling viewers that when they found themselves in the same situation, they could do otherwise.

The video quickly gained traction online with delighted users who reacted with humourous comments.

“It ended in praise” – Uche Ogbodo flaunts post-surgery transformation (WATCH)

Nollywood actress Uche Ogbodo has once again stirred conversation on social media after confirming the success of her latest cosmetic procedure, a Lipo 360 surgery.

The actress, who previously underwent a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), shared her recent experience with fans, offering a glimpse into her journey before and after the procedure.

Uche had posted a video of herself in hospital attire, smiling confidently and appearing upbeat as she prepared to go under the knife.

Following a successful operation, the actress returned online with a message of gratitude and triumph, proudly declaring, ‘It ended in praise.’

“It Ended In Praise! 2nd Phase Done & Dusted! Been through it and back like I never left! Shout Power Goddess Isika! Thank you, Lord Jesus.” Her caption read.

While many fans and followers commended her bravery and transparency, the procedure has also sparked conversations about the growing trend of cosmetic enhancements in Nollywood.

Some users applauded her openness and confidence, while others raised concerns about the rising normalization of surgery within the industry.

This comes shortly after her husband, Bobby Maris, publicly supported such procedures, stating that women who have the means should not be ashamed of undergoing BBL, liposuction, or tummy tucks to improve their appearance.

Actress Sarah Martins ass@ulted by KAI officers while cooking free food for the homeless in Lagos

Nollywood actress Sarah Martins has taken to social media in tears, recounting a disturbing encounter with operatives of the Kick Against Indiscipline (KAI) task force while engaging in a charitable act in Lagos.

In a video shared online, she tearfully narrated how she was harassed, bullied, and allegedly assaulted by KAI officers while preparing free food for individuals on the streets of Lagos.

According to her, the incident took place while she was cooking healthy meals on a street in Lekki, Lagos, which was meant to be distributed at no cost to the homeless.

The officers seized her equipment, including a gas cylinder and pots of food, and allegedly splashed hot oil on her in the process.

Sarah Martin’s story quickly went viral, drawing both sympathy and outrage from fans and internet users online.

Responding to the video, Jubril Gawat, Senior Special Assistant on New Media to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, confirmed the incident but offered a different narrative.

“KEEP LAGOS CLEAN.
This lady claims she is ‘cooking for charity’ and she is using the median around Admiralty, Lekki Phase 1 as her ‘kitchen’.
The KAI officials have arrested her with all her equipment and cleaned up the whole axis.” 
He wrote in a tweet.

While the government has not directly addressed the allegation of physical assault or the reported splashing of hot oil, Gawat’s statement indicates the state’s concern with maintaining environmental sanitation and order, especially in high-traffic areas like Admiralty Road.

Many users have questioned why the actress wasn’t warned first by the Lagos State Government, rather they choosing to shut her down forcefully.

A woman has taken to X (Twitter) to share a personal experience about how a decade-long friendship took a sour turn when she was unable to offer financial help, for the very first time.

In her post, she explained that she had always been there for her friend over the years, consistently rendering help when needed.

However, during a particularly difficult time for her financially, she was forced to say ‘no’ and was stunned by her friend’s reaction.

According to her, instead of showing understanding, her friend laughed and made a remark saying, “Thank God, no be only you be God’s favorite”.

She added that those words have been ringing in her head ever since, especially painful considering the friendship had lasted for over 10 years.

The tweet quickly gained traction on social media, with many users relating to her experience and reflecting on how true friendship is often tested during difficult times.

Below are some of the comments;

“Who needs an enemy when they have that. I’m so sorry about your experience.”

“Blood of God, human needs to be feared and be very feared…What?”

“Wow, that’s evil. So she likes coming to you for help, but is jealous that you got it like that.”

“That word no go ever go away from your mind, e heavy die. E go just dey ring!!! That na serious checking wey pesin no dey take lightly, ọ̀tá pò ju enemy lọ.”

“I have always begged to be in their lives” – Britney Spears speaks out about Pa!nful estrangement from her sons

Iconic American Pop superstar Britney Spears has shared a deep emotional message about her ongoing estrangement from her two sons.

The entertainer expressed heartbreak over their absence from her life and the impact it has had on her as a mother.

In a post online, the singer accused her ex-husband of gaslighting her, highlighting how difficult her relationship with her teenage boys has become over the years.

She revealed that one son has seen her for only 45 minutes in the past five years, while the other has visited her just four times.

Reflecting on the emotional toll of this distance, she states that she has done everything she could to be present in their lives.

The singer, now 42, also hinted that her sons may have been influenced by the disrespect she was shown by her own father, Jamie Spears.

However, Britney Spears says she is choosing to take a step back, setting boundaries for her own emotional well-being.

While clearly hurt, Britney ended the post by affirming her love for her sons and standing up for herself as a mother and a woman.

A part of her tweet read;

“Relationships with teenage boys is complex. I have felt demoralized by this situation and have always asked and almost begged for them to be a part of my life. Sadly, they have always witnessed the lack of respect shown by own father for me. They need to take responsibility for themselves. With one son only seeing me for 45 min in the past 5 years and the other with only 4 visits in the past 5 years. I have pride, too. From now on I will let them know when I am available. Trust me, those white lies in that book, they are going straight to the bank and I am the only one who genuinely gets hurt here. I will always love them and if you really know me, you won’t pay attention to the tabloids of my mental health and drinking.”

“She knew I had lupus” – Girl brǝaks down after her friend snatched her wig in public

A heartbreaking story shared on X (Twitter) has gone viral, after shedding light on a painful and devastating betrayal a lady faced.

According to the post, a young girl with lupus (an autoimmune disease that causes hair loss) had her wig forcibly snatched off by a friend in front of a group of boys.

The boys had laughed at first, but they all stopped after they saw her head; she had patches of hair and huge bald spots.

One person in the group quickly covered her head and brought her to his office, where she broke down and cried.

The tweet read;

“Teach your daughters about friends & frenemies today, a girl pulled off another girl’s wig in front of a group of boys. She has lupus. She had patches of hair, & huge bald spots. The girl who snatched the wig ran. The boys laughed at first, but when they saw her head, they all stopped. Someone covered her head, & brought her to his office. She held it together until they got there…Then she broke down. She kept slapping his desk and saying, “She’s supposed to be my friend. She knew. She knew.”

The post has struck a chord online, with many sharing and responding to the post with shock, support for the girl, and their individual experience.

Below are some of the comments;

“Some people can be like this. It’s very important to know who is for you and against you.”

And if the friend is being question, you would see how she respond in a gaslighting form and tell the friend either she’s either overreacting or she’s sorry she didn’t know it would hurt that much seeing it was a joke… Everyone knows what they’re doing.

“One time my friend asked me to follow her to see a guy and his friend. His friend complimented my body, said I was pretty. My friend said nothing then. But when he said I have yam legs, my friend laughed so loud the next table turned. Her guy wasn’t even laughing, just her.”

Man who married second wife because his first wife had only girls welcomes twin girls

A Nigerian man has become the topic of discussion online after reportedly marrying a second wife in his quest for a male child, only for the second wife to give birth to twin girls.

The story, which was shared by a neighbor on X (Twitter), quickly went viral due to sparking mixed reactions among internet users.

The neighbor noted that despite having five daughters with his first wife, the man believed she was the reason he hadn’t had a son. His decision to take a second wife was apparently driven by pressure to produce a male heir.

However, the birth of twin girls from his second wife added a twist to his fate, which many social media users found humorous.

According to the neighbor, the third wife is currently on her way to his home, and there’s a strong belief that she will also give birth to girls.

His tweet read, “My neighbor who married another wife because his first wife had 5 female kids. Today, the second wife just delivered twin girls. Even if he married another woman, she would definitely give birth to another baby girl. Third wife is on her way to the house, and she’ll definitely give birth to 10 girls.”

Below are some of the comments;

“He’s unable to understand that his sperms is what’s been produced.”

“I keep wondering why people don’t accept Allah’s blessings. It’s not about what we want, but what Allah knows is best for us. Instead of appreciating His favour, people often take a different path.”

“My former boss left his wife because she bore him six daughters; now he is a father of fourteen girls.”

Man Shares Hilarious Moment He Crashed His Sister’s Video (WATCH)

In a now-viral clip lighting up social media, a young man hilariously discovers that there’s a time and place for sibling antics, and mid-content creation is not one of them.

The video, posted by @nv9rh32 on TikTok, captures the moment he casually strolled into the background of his sister’s carefully framed video while she was recording.

It’s clear this isn’t her first rodeo with sibling sabotage. The clip ends with him laughing and retreating, as viewers erupt in laughter over the perfectly timed chaos.

Man shares why people should ‘Japa’, using his sister-in-law’s paycheck as example

A Nigerian man has gained traction online after highlighting that more Nigerians should consider ‘Japa’ while using his sister-in-law’s success story abroad as an example.

In a post on X (Twitter), he revealed that his sister-in-law, a medical doctor, recently received her first biweekly paycheck after relocating to the United States.

According to him, she took home $6,380.63, despite working only Monday to Thursday, contrasting her previous life in Nigeria, where she earned less than ₦200,000 monthly after working tirelessly from Mondays to Fridays for six years.

He ended the post with a strong message to Nigerians, urging them to ‘Run!’

His tweet read;

My sister-in-law worked Monday to Thursday and got her first biweekly paycheck as a medical doctor – $6,380.63 net pay… The same person worked tirelessly from Mondays to Fridays in Nigeria as a medical doctor and got less than 200k monthly pay for 6 years… Let that sink $6k plus bi-weekly, and will get an additional $6k plus in 2 weeks. 12k net pay monthly.. Pay gets to increase each year.. I am thankful Nigeria didn’t happen to her. She is alive today to enjoy and live the best things money can buy.  Her hard work paid off. Thank you, God! Nigeria is another reason to move.. Run! Run!! Run!!!“.

Below are some of the comments the post gained;

“This is quite emotional. Imagine from $120 per month to about $13k per month. It won’t be well with the politicians that kept Nigeria in the dark. Anyone that can leave, shouldn’t look back.”

“They will tell you Nigerian doctors had heavily subsidized education, so they shouldn’t complain about the poor salary and unpaid allowances.”

“Omo, $12k monthly compared to 200k . No medical doctor in nigeria earns more than 900k salary.”

University Professor Turns Cameraman to Help Three Female Students Capture the Perfect Shot (WATCH)

In a heartwarming twist that’s winning over the internet, a college professor took on an unexpected role, turning into a photographer extraordinaire for his students, and the results were both wholesome and hilarious.

The viral moment was shared by one of the students, part of a trio of friends who had just wrapped up a major campus event.

Dressed to slay and ready to capture the moment, they suddenly realized they had no one to take their photos.

That’s when a certain professor stepped in, and what began as a casual photo op quickly turned into a full-on photoshoot.

But this wasn’t just a “click-and-go” situation. The professor was fully committed to the role: crouching, panning, holding the phone steady like a seasoned content creator.

He gave direction, asked them to step back for better angles, and snapped gallery-worthy shots with impressive precision.

The students, dressed in coordinated outfits, were clearly slaying, and their professor matched their energy behind the lens every step of the way.

The spontaneous moment quickly caught the attention of online users, who were both touched and amused by the professor’s effort and enthusiasm.

“He’s a pathological l!ar” – Former US Mayor Mike Arnold dr@gs Reno Omokri

Former Texas Mayor Mike Arnold has called out Reno Omokri, branding the political commentator as a ‘pathological, habitual, calculating, self-serving liar.’

In a lengthy statement posted online, Arnold, who says he has interacted with Omokri in both the U.S. and Nigeria, referred to Reno as someone he once considered a close associate.

He accuses the Nigerian activist of manipulating people, faking relationships with powerful figures, and leveraging Nigeria’s worsening crisis for his personal gain.

According to Arnold, Reno Omokri falsely claimed ownership of two luxury cars in a viral video that belonged to Arnold’s friend. To boost his own reputation, he also took credit for years-long humanitarian trips he had no role in.

He lied on live TV, claiming Arnold was the current Republican mayor of Blanco, a false statement, as Arnold is neither in office nor active in politics, and repeatedly misrepresented others around him to bolster his political image.

However, Arnold’s most damning accusation centers on Omokri’s alleged attempts to whitewash the suffering of Christians in Nigeria.

“Lying to inflate yourself is one thing. Lying to cover up the Christian genocide raging in Nigeria is a bridge too far; he’s gaslighting a nation while Christians and innocent Nigerians suffer.” He stated

He concluded with an explosive claim that Reno Omokri’s ‘grand plan’ is to run for Vice President under NSA Ribaduc, a pair he mocks as  ‘delusion.’

The post has since triggered many users on social media, with the majority weighing in and some supporting Arnold’s claims.

“Nobody digs gold like Nigerian men” – Businesswoman lǝaks chat from Nigerian man wooing her (IMAGES)

A businesswoman has sparked conversation online after referring to men as gold diggers after a younger man attempted to woo her.

The businesswoman backed up her claim by sharing a chat from a younger man expressing romantic interest despite knowing her marital status.

The man had promised to be a good team player, friend, and husband to her while pleading with her to extend his greetings to her children.

She had claimed that once a woman is financially secure, age or motherhood no longer becomes a barrier to romantic attention.

Her post read;

“Nobody digs gold more than a Nigerian man. You see all that mouth they make about not marrying older women or women with children? What they really mean is: they’re not marrying broke women with children, or broke older women.
If you’re a woman in Nigeria and you have money, just watch, young guys in their 30s will flood in, proposing marriage left and right. Many of them are already married to wealthier women in their 40s, while they themselves are in their 30s. If you think it’s love, look through any popular Nigerian man that has married an older woman, and ask yourself, why is the woman always rich?
See this one, with all the family content I post on this street, he’s already building castles in the air. Shebi una see am?
Wooh, woman go find money abeg. Don’t let anyone tell you that you won’t see husband, just have correct money. You’ll see very humble, fine young men ready to marry.”

The post has sparked mixed reactions, while some accused her of generalizing and unfairly portraying Nigerian men, others agreed with her point of view.

“Poverty won’t d!e by fire, if you don’t work, it will deal with you” – Chiwetalu Agu (WATCH)

Veteran Nollywood actor Chiwetalu Agu has stirred mixed reactions on social media following a bold statement about poverty.

In a video shared on X (Twitter), the actor dismissed the popular religious expression ‘poverty die by fire,’ asserting that without hard work, such declarations are meaningless.

The actor acknowledged the importance of prayer but emphasized that faith without works is ineffective.

According to him, prayer serves to connect people to divine opportunities, but it is human action that unlocks and sustains blessings.

Backing his message with scripture, he referenced James 2:17 and Genesis 3:19, which remind believers that hard work is part of human responsibility.

He concluded by reinforcing that success is not handed out on a platter and cannot be achieved through prayer alone.

“Poverty cannot die by fire. If you like, pray from now till tomorrow; if you don’t work hard, poverty will deal with you. God rewards diligence, not laziness. Divine blessings come, but only to those who are prepared to act on their faith. For anyone to prosper, they must be ready to work. You must labour for your food, not just pray,” He said.

The entertainer’s comment has sparked a debate online, while some agreed with his opinion, others argued that he downplays the role of spiritual warfare in overcoming poverty.

Cubana Chief Priest claps back at Cosmas Maduka over ‘Money na Water’ comment (IMAGES)

Celebrity nightlife promoter and businessman, Cubana Chief Priest, has responded to Cosmas Maduka, Chairman of Coscharis Group, after the latter criticized his phrase ‘Money na Water.’

Maduka, during a recent speaking engagement, had taken a swipe at the popular saying, often used to portray wealth and abundance, arguing that the shallow displays of money were not values he aligned with.

However, in a detailed post on Instagram, Cubana Chief Priest pushed back, accusing Maduka of being out of touch with the evolving dynamics of wealth creation in the digital era.

According to Cubana Chief Priest, while the older generation built wealth through traditional means like factories, fleets, and real estate, today’s generation operates in what he called an attention economy, where visibility is the new currency.

He emphasized that social media engagement and online presence today hold as much value as physical assets once did.

Taking further aim at Maduka, Chief Priest criticized the billionaire’s behavior at a recent event, claiming he pretended to use the restroom just to leave discreetly and avoid mingling.

He also urged Maduka to remove himself from the ranks of Tony Elumelu and Femi Otedola, whom he praised for using their wealth and platforms to elevate Africa’s image globally.

Clarifying that his viral phrase ‘Money na Water‘ is not about vanity or wastefulness, but rather a metaphor for abundance and influence in the modern age.

The video, which circulated across social media platforms, triggered a wave of online backlash against Phyna, with many users criticizing her behavior during the incident.

He also urged fans and followers to avoid making assumptions about others’ lives without knowing their private struggles.

“Important notice defending PHYNA isn’t optional. She’s human, she’s grieving, and she deserves respect. Bullying her online won’t make you stronger; it’ll just show how weak you are. Choose kindness, or choose to be ignored. To everyone jumping to conclusions and criticizing PHYNA, let’s take a step back. We’ve all been through tough times, and we don’t know what someone’s dealing with behind closed doors. She just lost her sister, and the last thing she needs is hate. Let’s focus on spreading love and support instead. We don’t know what we’d do in her shoes. Let’s be kind, Anyi bu nwanne,” He wrote

“Next time they can add anointing oil, holy water” – Daniel Regha reacts to Seyi Tinubu’s 1 million Bibles gift

Social media critic Daniel Regha has reacted to the plan to distribute one million Bibles in celebration of Seyi Tinubu’s birthday.

Taking to X (Twitter), Regha mocked the initiative, suggesting that perhaps next time, anointing oil and holy water could be added to the package.

Regha described the move as ‘another slap to Nigerians’, questioning the priorities of those in power while criticizing the nature of such gestures in the face of widespread poverty.

Seyi Tinubu’s birthday will be celebrated with the disbursement of “one million Bibles” to whoever will accept; A million Bibles, wonderful. Maybe next time they can add anointing oil and holy water to facilitate prayers for the poor, since that’s what is needed the most in the country now. Again, this is another sl@p to Nigerians. He wrote

He also took a jab at religious leaders, saying they may have paved the way for such performative acts.

The tweet has sparked mixed reactions online. While some defended the Bible giveaway, others agreed with Daniel Regha, arguing that what Nigerians need more urgently are practical solutions, not religious items.

Below are some of the comments;

“A million Bibles won’t feed the hungry, won’t pay school fees, won’t fix power, won’t end insecurity. Nigerians don’t need more holy books; we need holy governance.”

“Who really gives them that advice of sharing a bible no try oo……country no good una the celebrate birthday.”

The Bibles are shared for Nigerians to easily pray against the hardships. Tinubu is a master strategist for real.

“But who can we really blame? The politicians only learned this from the pulpit. When the so-called men of God normalize using religion to distract the suffering, don’t be shocked when the powerful copy the same playbook.”

According to the post, the woman initially asked her family to support her plans to travel out of the country (popularly known as japa).

The tweet read: “This lady lied to her family, she was kidnapped, she got the ransom money, and then Japa. Called them from abroad and told them she asked nicely, but they said no money.”

However, she was turned down due to financial constraints. Leading her to fake her own abduction, which prompted her family to raise and send ransom money to ‘secure her release.’

Rather than return home, she reportedly used the funds to process her relocation and called her family only after landing abroad to reveal the truth and justify her actions by claiming she had no other choice.

While some social media users found the story amusing or even clever, others have condemned the act as manipulative and morally wrong.

“She deserves to be disowned and sued in court for deceit. The formal charges should be sent to her employers abroad and the local police so that she can be deported back to stand trial.”

“Na person wey know say both him family and the extended family carry go do this kain thing. If I try am, na my head dem go see for Abule Oniparaga in Ogun state.”

Nigerian Foundation Offers Free IVF, Celebrity Endorsement to Tackle Infertility

The Circle Mom Fertility Foundation

Abuja, Nigeria — A new charity foundation dedicated to assisted conception has called on the Nigerian government to prioritize fertility support programmes within the national health agenda, highlighting the emotional and financial burden faced by millions of couples.

The Circle Mom Fertility Foundation, launched in Abuja, immediately offered full and partial sponsorships for In-Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) treatment to ten couples. Founder Dr. Charles Ojeabuo stated the initiative was created to restore hope, arguing that assisted conception is a “divine tool” that allows families to achieve parenthood.

IVF Sponsorship and Accessibility
The foundation confirmed that five couples received full IVF sponsorship, five others were granted a 50% subsidy, and every attending couple received a 20% discount on treatment. To ensure wider access across Africa’s most populous nation, the foundation is partnering with fertility centres across Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones, reducing the need for families to travel long distances for care.

The launch event received a significant boost from a celebrity endorsement: visibly pregnant actress and comedienne, Anita Asuoha (Real Warri Pikin), paid tribute to the founders, praising the initiative for restoring hope to families. She joined the foundation’s patron, Dr. Rose Anthony-Orianran, in advocating for the work, with Dr. Anthony-Orianran describing the foundation as a “beacon of hope.”

A Public Health Issue
Mrs. Victoria Ojeabuo, the foundation’s National Director, who has personal experience with secondary infertility, stressed that the struggle is a significant public health issue. She noted that infertility affects millions globally, and the emotional and psychological toll is often overlooked, calling it a “silent pain.”

Mrs. Ojeabuo also provided demographic details on the challenge in Nigeria, citing that infertility cases are roughly 30% male-related, 30% female-related, and 30% a combination, urging philanthropists to collaborate and strengthen this “circle of humanity.”

Legal Guidelines for Assisted Reproduction
The legal aspects of Assisted Reproductive Treatment (ART) were also addressed. Guest speaker Babayemi Olawole, a legal expert, advised couples seeking surrogacy to “always choose gestational surrogacy,” warning that traditional surrogacy grants the surrogate mother biological rights to the child.

Olawole reassured attendees that while Nigeria lacks a specific statute governing ART, the practice is supported by the Constitution’s provision for private and family life. He advised couples to ensure consent forms are signed with the surrogate mother at multiple stages of the process and to avoid the temptation of knowing the surrogate personally.

“I have never heard a billionaire say ‘Money na water’” – Cosmas Maduka slams Cubana Chief Priest (VIDEO)

Nigerian businessman and founder of Coscharis Group, Dr. Cosmas Maduka, has taken a firm stand against the rising culture of flamboyant spending and material show-offs.

In a viral statement that appears to address Cubana Chief Priest, who often uses the slang ‘money na water’, Maduka condemned the mindset that equates wealth with wastefulness.

“I have never heard Tony Elumelu say ‘money na water.’ I have never heard Femi Otedola say it. And I’ve never said it myself, when I attend a function and people start throwing money in the air, I quietly walk away. This madness must stop.” He said

Maduka described the trend as a ‘dead value system’ that glamorizes recklessness and distorts the moral compass of younger generations.

According to him, real wealth is quiet, disciplined, and purpose-driven, not loud and wasteful.

The businessman further emphasized that true prosperity should inspire humility, not arrogance, and that the normalization of extravagant lifestyles destroys the principles of hard work, responsibility, and integrity.

He urged Nigerians, especially the youth, to resist the influence of social media displays that promote vanity and quick gratification, warning that such values are harmful to personal growth.

He concluded by saying, “When we were growing up, rich people didn’t make noise. All these people making noise today never made real money. We are passing on a deadly culture to our children. That’s not how to build a value-driven society.”

Comedian Ali Baba backs polygamy, says it encourages marital discipline

Veteran Nigerian comedian, Ali Baba, has sparked conversation online after publicly declaring his support for polygamy.

He stated that the practice can promote discipline and order within marriages.

The renowned entertainer, in a recent interview, argued that polygamy, often criticized in modern discourse, holds practical benefits rooted in cultural traditions.

According to Ali Baba, some men find that having multiple wives helps them better manage their homes.

“Some people believe that if you have only one wife, you may not be able to control her, but if the wife knows you have more than one, she’ll calm down because she knows that if she misbehaves, another person will take her place.” He said.

The comedian also referenced traditional African societies, noting that polygamy was not only accepted but sometimes actively supported by women.

In certain cases, wives would even help their husbands take additional wives to avoid the stigma of extramarital affairs.

Ali Baba further highlighted that in the past, it was customary for a deceased man’s brother to marry his widow, ensuring the welfare of both the woman and her children.

While acknowledging the shift in societal values, the comedian maintained that polygamy remains a culturally grounded and functional marital system.

He concluded by saying, “It may not be fashionable today, but I personally believe in it.”

His remarks have generated mixed reactions online, while some agreed with his stance, others criticized the views as outdated.

Below are some of the comments;

The idea that women behave better out of fear of another wife is outdated. True discipline in marriage comes from mutual respect, not intimidation!

“Can we men also allow women to do the same since it helps maintain marital discipline?”

“I’ve never seen a disciplined polygamous man. He’s always hunting for the next one.”

“In 2025? Men who think like this, I always pray they meet their match in women. Aura for aura.”

“I love you, but please don’t touch me without consent” – Skitmaker Meshkiey cautions after uncomfortable fan encounter

Nigerian skitmaker and content creator Meshkiey has spoken out about a recent uncomfortable experience with fans.

Sharing on X (Twitter), he revealed that at Tacha’s Guinness World Record attempt, two different women approached and hugged him without his permission, leaving him unsettled.

He went on to express that even handshakes with strangers often feel intrusive to him, making unexpected hugs and physical contact even more unsettling.

“But Someone (a lady) even grabbed me by my arm, and that made me very uncomfortable. Had to force my way out of her hand cos she was beginning to say stuff I didn’t understand. Let’s not be razz now. Please, there are several other comported ways to go about these. I love you, but please don’t startle me or touch me weirdly without consent. This should be really sensitive.” He wrote.

Meshkiey addressed the behavior as inappropriate, urging fans and the public to be more aware of how they engage with public figures and others in general.

The post has sparked a conversation online about fans’ behavior and the often-overlooked importance of consent in casual public interactions.

Below are some of the comments;

“If you feel comfortable about hugs especially as some persons are misusing this opportunity. I think going forward you should always extend handshakes to your fans even if the other suggests a hug.”

“It is more polite to ask “please can I get a hug” if you guys are strangers. Always extend handshakes in order to avoid such surprises.”

“Hugs are really personal, not what you should receiving from random strangers especially without consent.”

Asherkine explains why He stopped making binge-eating content (IMAGE)

Popular content creator Asherkine has opened up about his decision to step back from creating binge-eating food videos.

In a post shared on X (Twitter), the food enthusiast revealed that while he genuinely enjoyed filming large meal content, the physical and mental toll became too serious to ignore.

Asherkine admitted that what began as creative expression soon turned into compulsive eating.

This led to a series of health issues, including abdominal discomfort, heart palpitations, weight gain, irregular sleep, high blood pressure, and chronic fatigue.

Beyond the physical symptoms, he described the internal struggle as far more difficult. Now two years into confronting the disorder, Asherkine says he’s more aware of its lingering effects.

“Even though I had an active lifestyle at the time and tried to stay fit, I lost the concept of moderation as mindless binge eating became the OOTD even when I wasn’t creating content. I wouldn’t stop eating until I started to feel abdominal discomfort. Gluttony had made its way aside the general discomfort, heart palpitations, excess weight gain, irregular sleep, sneaky high blood pressure count, constant fatigue, and so on…The mental battle to beat gluttony is probably the hardest thing to deal with. I can’t express how disrespectful gluttony is and how much power it holds, but it’s mad underrated. It’s 2 years later, and I still chat to the pit in my tummy. He wrote

While he isn’t quitting food content altogether, Asherkine made it clear that it will no longer be produced in the same high-volume, binge-focused format.

The post has sparked conversations around content creation burnout, disordered eating, and the blurred lines between entertainment and health, especially for creators in the food space.
