 Tyla's Lagos Concert Sparks Intense Debate Amid Renewed Xenophobia Concerns The announcement of South African Grammy-winning singer Tyla's "APOP World Tour" has triggered a widespread and divided reaction across Nigerian social media platforms, particularly concerning her scheduled performance in Lagos on December 22. The planned concert, which precedes her shows in Cape Town on January 4 and Johannesburg on January 9, has become a flashpoint for renewed outrage over persistent allegations of xenophobic attacks against Nigerian nationals in South Africa.

 Mercy Aigbe, Eniola Ajao Spark Backlash Over Attendance at CEO Luminee’s Surprise Baby Shower


The Nigerian entertainment circle is buzzing once again following the birth of a newborn baby boy to celebrity stylist Abiodun Folashade, widely known as CEO Luminee, and veteran actor Olanrewaju Omiyinka, popularly called Baba Ijesha. While the news of their child initially sparked waves of skepticism across social media, a newly surfaced video from Luminee's surprise baby shower has added more fuel to the ongoing online debate.


A Star-Studded Surprise and Tears of Joy


In the recently leaked footage, a heavily pregnant CEO Luminee can be seen completely overwhelmed with emotion. The popular fashion designer broke down in tears of joy as close friends and colleagues pulled off a heartwarming surprise baby shower for her. Among the high-profile guests captured comforting the emotional mother-to-be were prominent Nollywood actresses Mercy Aigbe and Eniola Ajao.


Another segment of the video showed a much happier scene, with the new mother showing off her energetic dance moves in celebration of her impending motherhood.


Netizens React to Mercy Aigbe and Eniola Ajao's Presence


However, the festive atmosphere has not shielded the event from public scrutiny. Netizens quickly flooded social media comment sections, expressing mixed feelings about the star-studded guest list. In particular, many criticized Mercy Aigbe and Eniola Ajao for their public association with the event, given the controversial history of the child's father, Baba Ijesha.


Baba Ijesha, who was previously convicted of sexual assault, was released from prison in November 2025 after serving his term. Since his release, public opinion surrounding him has remained highly polarized. For many internet users, the high-profile celebration of his new family unit with CEO Luminee raises difficult questions.


A Trail of Controversy


The skepticism surrounding Baba Ijesha’s return to the spotlight is not limited to his past legal battles. Recently, fellow Nollywood actor Yomi Fabiyi publicly accused Baba Ijesha of betrayal, claiming the veteran actor sent threats his way shortly after his release from prison.


Despite the backlash and ongoing debates, the arrival of the newborn boy on Monday, June 15, 2026, marks a new chapter for CEO Luminee and Baba Ijesha. Whether this celebration will help ease the public's tension or further fuel the controversy remains to be seen.
