Legit.ng reported that Aunty Ajara passed away after battling a liver-related illness on Thursday, February 5, 2026.
Wahab Malik stated that the pregnancy was not a crime but rather brought joy to the actress, who had long wished to have a child of her own.
Aunty Ajara, known for her petite frame and vibrant presence on screen, had battled health challenges before her passing.
Her death drew widespread reactions across social media, with many fans mourning her loss and others questioning the circumstances surrounding her pregnancy.
Malik, however, dismissed the calls for punishment, emphasising that childbirth is always a risk and only God determines safe delivery.

Wahab Malik defends Aunty Ajara's partner
In his video, Malik explained that the pregnancy should have been medically supported when it reached five months, but instead, the situation was mishandled.
He maintained that the man who impregnated Ajara should be compensated rather than condemned. He added that Nigerians ought to have rallied around him with financial support.
According to him, the partner made a genuine effort to help the actress, and it was unfair to accuse him after her death when no one raised objections during the early stages of the pregnancy.
Malik concluded that Nigeria failed Aunty Ajara, pointing to systemic shortcomings that contributed to her tragic end.
His remarks have sparked conversations online.

Motherhood is not a favour – Social media commentator
A social media commentator, who requested to stay anonymous, reacted to Wahab Malik’s remarks.
He said:
“To be honest, I don’t fully agree with Wahab Malik on this matter. Yes, he is right that Aunty Ajara’s partner should not be arrested if their relationship was mutual and not forceful. We cannot criminalise two adults for consenting to be together, and blaming the man alone is not fair.
But saying the man ‘did her a favour’ is completely wrong. Even though she was petite, Aunty Ajara was a full human being with equal rights and full dignity. Motherhood is not a favour someone does for another person; it is a shared responsibility. That kind of statement indirectly reduces her worth, and we must never speak about people living with disabilities as if they are less deserving.
The real issue here is the poor medical support and systemic failure that contributed to her death. That is where the country failed her, not in her decision to be in a relationship or have a child.”

US-based woman speaks on Aunty Ajara's pregnancy
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that a US-based woman sparked debate online after sharing her views on the man who impregnated the late Nigerian actress Aunty Ajara.
In a video that quickly went viral, she argued that prosecuting him would be unjust. She said one of Nigeria's major problems is the lack of resources to properly care for people like Aunty Ajara.
She added that if the situation had occurred in the United States, Aunty Ajara would likely have received adequate medical care.
