The X post about Don Jazzy and Ayra Starr's mum that started it all

The drama traces back to September 29, when @AJSMILE911 posted a short video clip accompanied by the caption:

"Don Jazzy and Ayra Starr's mom happily celebrate as they prepare to welcome their unborn baby."

The footage, which showed Don Jazzy and the Afrobeats star's mother laughing and gesturing, was originally posted by Ayra Starr's mom on November 26, 2023, and later posted by the influencer to mislead the public.

Don Jazzy responded publicly on September 30 by quoting the post and writing:

"Let me first tag and beg your family members to talk sense to you now o."

Despite the public warning, the influencer left the content up without taking it down.

As of the time of this report, neither Don Jazzy, Ayra Starr, nor her mother has made any public statement regarding the reported arrest.

No official police confirmation or independent verification of the detention has emerged, meaning the story rests entirely on circulating social media claims.
