A young Nigerian lady has come under intense criticism after making derogatory and insensitive remarks about the family of popular comic actor Victor Udochukwu Nwaogu, better known as Nkubi.
Nkubi had recently shared a heartwarming Christmas photo [/b]with his wife and child, which was met with an outpouring of goodwill from fans and followers who admired the happy family. The joyful picture showcased the love and bond between the couple and their child, spreading festive cheer among those who viewed it.
However, among the many kind comments, one stood out for its sheer insensitivity. A lady, identified as Obianuju Benita Anekwe, took to Facebook to lambast Nkubi’s wife, making demeaning comments about the comic actor's physical appearance and criticizing his wife for choosing to marry him despite his looks. Her post quickly attracted backlash due to the offensive nature of her remarks.
In her post, Anekwe wrote: “Nkubi’s wife tried not just by marrying him but also birthing a child. I personally can’t marry such a person for my kids’ sake. The anxiety that would come with the pregnancy based on the fact that the child might end up inheriting more of the father’s genes won’t be funny.”
She continued, “Forget, I am not sure there’s anyone that wouldn’t be bothered about having a midget as a child no matter how much you claim to love the father. Plus I wouldn’t want to be the reason my child will be bullied most of the time. It’s also possible she did prenatal testing while pregnant.”
Anekwe further commented, “Being married to such a person would also make you walk on eggshells because most of your actions will likely be misunderstood, especially if you married one with low self-esteem, which majority of them suffer from. She really tried.”
The comment quickly sparked outrage among Nkubi’s fans and social media users, many of whom were appalled by the lady’s insensitive and discriminatory language. Online users condemned Anekwe for body-shaming Nkubi and making derogatory assumptions about his family. Fans of Nkubi rallied behind him, defending his wife and celebrating their love and courage in the face of unwarranted criticism.
Many social media users applauded Nkubi’s wife for her strength and the love she shared with Nkubi, emphasizing that true love transcends physical appearance. Others praised the couple for their happiness, urging the public to respect their union and stop making hurtful comments. The incident further highlighted the need for kindness and empathy in online discourse, especially when discussing personal matters involving others.
