She explained:
“My aunties are pick mes. That’s why I cannot just stay and be listening to some of their advice because it’s complete trash. My mom, sef, is a pick me. I love her. She’s a Good Christian. But as a woman, she’s no dey try.”
She revealed that her uncle, who recently passed away, had a complicated marital history.
“So his wife, his legal wife, we all know her as. Let me name her Cindy. When they were dating, she got pregnant. So they didn't want to have the child."
According to her, the couple chose to terminate the pregnancy. Sadly, complications arose from the medical procedure, making Cindy unable to have any children.
"Then, they were done anyway so it might not be safe. They still got married. Now they got married. During the course of their marriage, like 10 years in, there was no child,” she said.
She asked in the video:
“Why was there no child? Because of this complication that both of them joined together commit.”
She then revealed that her uncle had gone ahead with a secret marriage with another lady code-named 'Precious'.
“Now, as a man, that you've caused that kind of rubbish to your wife, are you not supposed to stay and endure? During the course of this marriage, this man married another girl. Let's name her Precious,” she added.

She alleged that 'Precious' gave him twins and was accepted into the household as the second wife without the knowledge of the first wife, Cindy.
She said:
“And who knew about this? My mother knew. My aunties knew. All her sisters knew. In fact, the whole family knew. Even me and my elder sister. This man carried me and my elder sister when we were much younger to that side chick's house that had twins. This woman gave us ponmo, hot meat, and drink , zobo make we chop. And when my uncle's side chick came to see us, my mother followed us. We all went to see the side chick,” she recalled.
The lady continued:
“Now, moving on to when he died. This was almost 2 months. My old wife was shocked. This woman fainted how many times? Because she found out that there were not just 2 twins, there were up to 5 kids. From other women. One almost my age."
