In the post, Cute Abiola revealed that his wife had undergone three surgeries within four years, adding that he feared losing her and worried about raising the children alone.
Shortly after announcing the successful delivery, the skitmaker shared a YouTube link on Instagram containing a longer video of the procedure, a move that divided opinions among social media users.
While some fans congratulated the couple, others expressed discomfort with the decision to record and share such a private moment publicly.
Critics argued that childbirth, especially a surgical delivery, should remain private.
Some users also questioned whether the video turned a sensitive family moment into online content.
