Nigerian comedian and skit maker, Ganiyu Morufu, popularly known as Ijoba Lande, has revealed that he possesses eight videos of different men engaging in intimate acts with his estranged wife, Darasimi. The shocking revelation has stirred controversy within the entertainment industry and beyond.
Ijoba Lande made the claims during a live interview with media personality Daddy Freeze on Instagram on Monday night. In an emotional conversation, he shared his pain, stating that watching the videos had been a traumatic experience.
His statement follows the recent confession by actor Baba Tee, who admitted to having a brief intimate encounter with Darasimi. According to Ijoba Lande, the alleged acts of infidelity by his wife have left him heartbroken and unable to move on.
A Marital Crisis in the Public Eye
For months, Ijoba Lande’s marriage has been the subject of public debate. The couple, who were once seen as an example of love and partnership, have been embroiled in controversies that continue to make headlines.
In the interview, the comedian accused his wife of being unfaithful, stating that her behavior has made him lose trust in relationships. He claimed that since their separation, he has avoided relationships with other women.
“I have eight videos of other men sleeping with my wife aside from Baba Tee. It’s so painful. I watched how these men were spanking her,” he said.
Ijoba Lande did not hold back his emotions, stating that Darasimi’s actions have deeply affected him. He went further to say that he has had Baba Tee’s video for about four months and is considering releasing it to the public.
“I challenge anybody to admit seeing me with any lady in a hotel since this incident happened. I’m embittered with the whole situation. She’s a bad woman,” he added.
Public Reactions and Industry Concerns
Since the interview, reactions have poured in from fans, fellow entertainers, and social media users. While some sympathize with Ijoba Lande, others question why he would consider making such personal matters public.
Many have criticized the idea of releasing explicit videos, warning that it could lead to legal consequences. In Nigeria, distributing intimate content without consent is a criminal offense, and some legal experts have cautioned Ijoba Lande against taking such a step.
Others argue that the public feud between the couple reflects a growing trend of personal disputes being played out on social media. Some entertainment analysts believe that such controversies can damage the careers of those involved, as well as affect their personal reputations.
The Entertainment Industry’s Response
The Nigerian entertainment industry has seen its fair share of scandals, but this latest revelation has raised concerns about how celebrities handle personal issues. Some have called for maturity and discretion, urging entertainers to resolve conflicts privately rather than seeking public sympathy.
Baba Tee, who was mentioned in the controversy, has yet to make any further statements beyond his initial admission of a brief encounter with Darasimi. His silence has fueled speculation about his role in the matter and whether he might respond to Ijoba Lande’s accusations.
Legal Implications of Leaking Explicit Videos
Legal experts have warned that the release of any explicit material without the consent of those involved could have serious consequences. Under Nigerian law, revenge porn and the unlawful distribution of private videos can lead to prosecution.
A Lagos-based lawyer, Adekunle Adeoye, explained that anyone found guilty of sharing intimate content without consent could face imprisonment. He advised Ijoba Lande to seek legal redress instead of taking matters into his own hands.
“The law is clear on this matter. The Cybercrimes Act criminalizes the distribution of explicit content without consent. If he follows through with his threat, he could be prosecuted,” Adeoye stated.
A Troubled Marriage and Public Scrutiny
Ijoba Lande and Darasimi were once admired for their strong bond. However, their marriage has been under strain in recent years, with rumors of infidelity and disagreements surfacing. Their marital problems became public when the comedian first accused his wife of cheating.
Some reports suggest that their relationship had already been experiencing issues before the videos emerged. While Darasimi has yet to respond to these latest allegations, previous reports indicate that she denied wrongdoing in the past.
Social Media’s Role in Celebrity Conflicts
With the rise of social media, more personal disputes are being played out in the public domain. Ijoba Lande’s case is the latest example of how celebrity conflicts can quickly escalate when taken to social platforms.
While some fans appreciate the transparency, others believe that such disputes should be handled privately to prevent further damage. Many Nigerians have taken to social media to share their opinions, with some calling for calm and others questioning why the videos were recorded in the first place.
What Next for Ijoba Lande and Darasimi?
As the controversy continues, questions remain about what will happen next. Will Ijoba Lande release the videos despite legal warnings? Will Darasimi respond to the allegations? And how will this scandal affect their future careers?
For now, the Nigerian entertainment industry watches closely as the drama unfolds. Many hope that both parties will find a way to resolve their differences without further public confrontations.
The coming days will reveal whether this marital crisis will lead to legal battles, industry backlash, or personal reconciliation. One thing is certain—this is a scandal that has captured the attention of the nation.
