MIXED reactions as Cute Abiola films wife’s surgery

Cute Abiola has stirred reactions after sharing a detailed video documenting his wife’s childbirth surgery, prompting widespread criticism and debate over privacy and content monetisation

The video, which runs for over an hour on Youtube, captures the couple’s journey from pre-surgery preparations to post-delivery recovery.

In one of the most emotional moments on April 4 the surgery day, Cute Abiola is seen outside the theatre, visibly distressed as he offers prayers for his wife’s safety.

“So my wife is in the theatre already… I beg you God, please. I wish my wife safe delivery. I wish she comes out well. There should be no complications,” he said, with his voice trembling.

He revealed that the procedure was his wife’s third surgery in four years, raising concerns among viewers about the physical and emotional toll.

As the surgery progressed, he narrated how he played Quran recitations to calm the tense atmosphere, admitting he was overwhelmed.

“I was shaking already. I could not hold it anymore. I was just crying… Allah,” he added.

The tension eventually gave way to relief as the procedure ended successfully, with the skitmaker announcing the birth of a baby boy.

However, despite the positive outcome, the video has drawn sharp reactions online, with many users questioning the decision to record and share such an intimate medical experience.

Naija Intel (#9jaintelligence) questioned the intent behind the video, saying, “One of your hardest moments and you still hired a videographer… now you’re asking us to go watch it on YouTube?”

OBA MAKANAKI 06 (#tolumakanaki) was more blunt, as he said, “Imagine what you are recording and posting… why are you using a natural process to make money?”

Similarly, Dr. lag_uncle (M.O.N) (#Barry_sneh) criticised the trend of monetising personal experiences.

“Nothing wey una no dey monetise… like say women for our own family never go through similar procedures.”

Another user, Ọmọ Ògùn (#bissiriyu), expressed confusion over the decision.

“You still used your wife’s delivery in the theatre as content… I no understand anymore.”

Ibrahim Kazeem (#peng_writer) described the act as crossing ethical boundaries.

“This is what happens when there’s no red line you can’t cross for clout.”

Still, not all reactions were negative. Some users defended Cute Abiola’s decision, framing the video as a testimony of faith and resilience.

Tate Michael (#TateMichael1) praised the couple, saying, “Your wife is a strong woman… many pregnant women would be encouraged.”
