I just want to first express my disappointment on Wizkid and Burnaboy, if it is true that they were burgled by Diddy and in exchange, Diddy put $1,000,000 in their hands and also paved the way for them through endorsements and several deals and yet when people accuse them of being a lifay they get upset and start threatening, harassing and arresting people... that is a huge disappointment and also a sign that they are guilty.

If you accuse me of something of which I am innocent I will just laugh it off because no one will believe it knowing my personality. For example, if there are several photos online of Davido and Diddy but no one is calling Davido a Lifay boy because we know that he can't do that, he is not hungry and doesn't need anything from Diddy so him hanging out with Diddy is just based on friendship and as a colleague in the industry. Eedris Abdulkarim, after his fight with 50cent in 2000's also visited Diddy and according to his lyrics "Puff daddy give me some money and a Lexus jeep, I come de paint the town red" We didn't accuse Eedris of Lifay.
As I tell my Muslim friends, If I were to be a Muslim and I subscribe to Jihadi ideology, I will not hide it. I carry the Jihad openly and let everyone know my stand.
It's the same way I feel concerning this whole Diddy and Lifay saga, If I got burgled for millions of dollars, endorsement deals and other benefits, I will not hide myself when accused. The LGBTQ community is full of lovely fun loving people, I wouldn't mind associating with them. I am rich and gay so what's your problem?

Besides, the world is run by the LGBTQ people and there are also many people in the closet. So my advice is that if truly they got burgled, why hide and get stressed when people talk about it or accuse you?
You are rich and if people around you don't want to mingle with you anymore then shun them and gravitate towards those that accept you.

Their lives, they’re a**🥱 you and I know the implications of burna or wiz kid coming out openly to declare they are gay especially in Nigeria where it isn’t widely accepted and we love to banter.

How would you feel if you’re accused of having sex with your gay boss to win your greatest award or achievements, would you agree?

I don't care as long as I got $1m.

Forget the $1m for a moment. We all know how much Nigerians truly value that image of a ‘self-made, hardworking, successful youth.’

Now, imagine the sheer chaos—the volume of diss tracks—that would be made if someone like Burna Boy were publicly found to be gay.

Think of the concrete ammunition his enemies would suddenly have against him.
If he isn't mentally prepared for that kind of backlash, the pressure could easily lead him into depression. There are genuinely a lot of mental and social issues that money simply cannot cure.

Have you ever been broken?
Apart from your mother, who else is willing to help you or look out for your wellbeing?

Unless you have people like that, you should never worry about anyone.

If Burna boy goes broke today nobody will care for him except mother and maybe father, so why do you bother yourself about others?
That's a huge redflag. And there is nothing hidden the sun, the truth will surely come out one day.

With all due respect, I don't think you really understand what depression is.

It’s not just for people who are broke or lack family support. Money does not automatically give you mental toughness. Why do you think someone as rich as Justin Bieber was messed up after the recent Diddy case? Even our own stars like Omah Lay have openly talked about battling depression, and they certainly don't lack funds.

The absolute proof is in sports. Footballers are multi-millionaires, but they get crushed by social media and public pressure. When Messi lost that major penalty for his country, he cried and retired temporarily. It wasn't his mother who made him cry; it was the weight of the whole country and the fans. Same thing with Ronaldo when he loses. They know the consequence of failing in the public eye.

Fame just doesn’t work the way you imagine. The moment a superstar loses the trust of their fan base, their career is over. Look at Burna Boy: he lost concert sales just because of one bad public act. If he only cared about his mother and his bank account, why would he bother paying for the burial of people he doesn't know in America? He cares because he knows how crucial public perception is. Even Saka went into depression after his penalty miss.

You cannot be a global celebrity and genuinely not care what people say—that's a quick trip down to irrelevance. Even controversial people like Naira Marley and Sam Larry still had to mind public opinion, let alone the A-list stars like Burna Boy and Wizkid.

I don't care about the public so its hard for me to imagine maintaining some false public persona. But I get you, them celebrities have to maintain a fake life in public space.
Funny that you sam Larry that whole crew are lifay.

The Nigerian Music Industry has been permeated by Homosexuality. Nollywood is even worse.

Gistlover dropped a list of Gay Nigerian Celebrities some years ago and some verified & confirmed gays that I knew (through word of mouth) were on that list.

Very true. There's nothing wrong with being a lifay but people who are lifay are always shy.
