The Sudden Uprise Of Baby Mamas In Nigeria by robosky02(m): 11:24am On Oct 14, 2015
Have we ever wondered what the deal is with some of our young girls that get pregnant for Nigerian celebrities who half the time probably do not give a hoot about them?

Have we ever stopped to wonder if and how they arrived at being pregnant? Yes I know they indulged in the act but did they deliberately get pregnant? Or did it happen by accident?

To be honest, at the rate at which young girls are getting pregnant for our Nigerian celebrities, I am of the opinion that they are probably even timing their ovulation to ensure they get pregnant when they engage in sexual intercourse with these men because it is so rampant that it just CANNOT be a mistake anymore.


Back in the day, Tuface Idibia was reprimanded for leading young girls astray with his numerous baby mamas but now Tuface even seems more like the normal one since he was finally able to tie the knot with one of his baby mamas at the time.

Now, we have artists like WizKid, Davido, Jesse Jagz, Flavour, Ice Prince, Patoranking, Olamide and so on. Let’s not forget the infamous Maje Ayida who had a baby by his ex-girlfriend Anita while married to his superstar wife Toke Makinwa.

Even our female celebrities have a stake in this as well with the likes of Omawunmi, Waje, Anna Banner and a host of others. But thankfully, Omawunmi married her baby daddy while pregnant with baby number two.

Is this a trend? Or are the women blinded by the fact that the men are celebrities and having a baby by them somewhat translates to “financial security”?

Please permit me to include supposed “wives” who are yet to marry in the sight of God but already have CHILDREN for their supposed “husband”. Like the likes of Psquare and brothers who are very successful but for whatever reasons known to them, have refused to marry their women in the church.

This act is not only wrong in the sight of God but it is just as though you are still living with a concubine. It really baffles me how you can be married before the law and your community but fail to be married before the almighty God.

Yet you live as man and wife and even recreate offspring like man and wife. What a shame!

To be honest, the wives of such people should actually be glad they even performed the traditional rites because given the rise of baby mamas these days, they could easily have gotten away with having them simply as their baby mamas.

What is our society turning into? What are we teaching our children?



How can we raise our children with the notion that daddy has other children with other women? Doesn’t this already breed enmity and competitiveness?

Call me old fashioned but children are supposed to be raised in a home. As a matter of fact, children ought to be born after the man and woman have TIED THE KNOT!

There used to be a standard procedure back in the day: Meet the girl, date, propose, introduction, traditional, court, church wedding and finally, babies.

Whatever happened to that trend? Now they call it “Civilisation” or better yet, “Westernization”

What a shame indeed!

Sometime ago, on TV, I watched an interview of Jesse Jagz’s baby mama, Ruby who is also an artist signed on the same record label as he is; Chocolate City. She was asked about her future plans with Jesse and to my surprise, she responded saying she didn’t want to be in a relationship with him and that she is happy with where they are at the moment aka she is okay with just being a baby mama.

OMG! That had to be the most unbelievable thing I have ever heard!

What is this society really turning into? Since when did it become okay for a woman to have a baby for man that isn’t her husband and even be ok with it?

My question is if you do not aspire to become his wife and he your husband in the near future, why then do you want to have a baby with him in the first place?

I really do not know the reason why all these women are clamoring to become “baby mamas” but enough is enough ladies!

You are precious and should treat yourself as such. No marriage, no babies! If he really wants a baby, he clearly can afford a wedding after all, he’s a celebrity.

Ladies, you must stop presenting yourself in this manner regardless of if the end result is marriage to a celebrity. It really doesn’t worth the risk of becoming a baby mama.

Maybe we need to return back to the good ol’ days when such behaviour were frowned upon. Enough really is enough!

What do you think is the reason for the up-rise of baby mamas in Nigeria?

Feel free to comment and share your opinion and suggestions.

i am not of the opinion that any girl who gets pregnant for a celeb is a mistake.
this is because, you find out within 4 weeks that you are pregnant there is still chance to abort it, you can't say you do not have money to abort it. so therefore it is definitely intentional, either you intentionally took in, or you intentionally decided to keep the pregnancy, either way it is a conscious decision to keep the pregnancy.

Well said. Getting pregnant might be a mistake but leaving it is a choice.

Your piece is laced with loopholes, ignorance and error even as you displayed your inability to respect others choices and decision. By failing to embrace others life choices and undermining their unshackling liberty you became shortfall of any right to parade your personal opinion on others.

Your write up became nauseous when you suggested P'square are not properly wedded to their wives because they haven't performed a ceremonious white wedding ritual. This disjointed assertion and display of arrogance to venture into someone's union without a need to do so speaks volume of your ignorance and lack of elementary knowledge of the matrimonial institution.

Prior to the invention of white wedding which from it inception was unconnected to religion but became customary after Queen Victoria of England wore a white gown to her court wedding and with Christians adopting the dressing code into it system there have been marriages around the world. The practice of wedding has been in force even before the advent of religion so for you or anyone to suggest that anyone who didn't wed in a church is not properly married is naive and ignorance. I don't know about you but my great grand parents and ancestors were properly married to their respective wives the traditional method without church wedding and before the importation of Abrahamic doctrines to our clan.

Lastly, the issue of baby mamas isn't confined to our celebrities like you're indicating and being insinuated by many. There have been baby mamas even before the booming of Nigeria entertainment industry and it has been a prevalence even among the 'common' class and non celebrities. I know of countless baby mamas who have never been entangled with any celebrity.

the summary of your thought is you love babay mamas right

well i must point out to you it devalues a woman

back in the days as you said our parents dont dare touch a woman until they pay her Full dowries and get the consent and blessing of both parents.

but this days its a shame you meet her after one show somewhere ... and she gets pragnant next you come to the media with picture of your baby mama and kid

why not do the honourable thing pay the bride price which is very cheap in some culture,
get the blessing of her parents and your and let a pastor bless you both (if you cant afford a wedding gown) the key is the blessin.

in that way you secure the woman and her future. not next 2 years another shows up and you clam i never married you


ladies what your take

well i would say the girls are silly minded, they prefer to have a baby for the celeb which will serve as a constant chain of attachment(so as to elicit favors etc from the baby daddy), than to lose out entirely(in a situation where the celeb does not marry them and they do not have a baby for him).

ladies what your take

No where in my post was I supporting or encouraging the practice of baby mamas. I was however, stressing on the need to be less judgmental, embrace individual choices and dismiss the popular conception that celebrities are the only ones who indulge in the practice.

And while agreeing with you that a man should perform marital rites and pay dowry of their women before procreating I disagree that a marriage must be only seen as complete after a church wedding or blessing from a pastor like you put it, has been conducted.

Just like I said in my previous comment, there have been marriages around the world and in Nigeria before religion was established in our country and unless you have any discountenance to prove those marriages weren't 'blessed' then parading it as factual is erroneous.

Everyone deserve the right to exercise their independent freedom of the type of wedding they desire, be it in a church, traditionally or a court setting, and for one not to perform a church wedding doesn't make their union less merited than others. P'square can have white wedding at their own convenience or decide never to, it doesn't demerit who they are and what they share with their respective wives.
