Celebrities and Activists React to Viral Video of Alleged Babymama Making Threats
A viral video has ignited widespread outrage after Hellen Atti, the alleged babymama of Nigerian socialite Cubana Chiefpriest, was captured making disturbing threats against her young son. The footage, which circulated online, shows Atti screaming at the child, threatening to "frustrate" his life or let him die, intensifying the ongoing paternity dispute between the parties.
Details of the Viral Incident and Public Backlash
In the video, Hellen Atti is heard shouting and calling on Cubana Chiefpriest, whose real name is Paschal Okechukwu, to "come and carry your son." She explicitly states, "Paschal, come and carry your son. If not, I will frustrate him. If he wants to die, let him die," while the child is present. Reports suggest that Atti has allegedly refused to feed the boy as a way to vent her frustration, adding to concerns about his welfare.
Human rights activists and concerned Nigerians have responded with alarm, urging immediate intervention from child protective services to remove the minor from the situation. The clip has drawn serious scrutiny, with many condemning the use of a child in what appears to be a public dispute over paternity.
Background of the Paternity Dispute and Social Media Reactions
Hellen Atti has repeatedly demanded that Cubana Chiefpriest submit to a DNA test to determine the paternity of the boy, a claim the businessman has previously denied. The viral video has amplified the tension, with social media users expressing mixed reactions. Some, like @chefsong_, criticized the exploitation of children for clout, stating, "It’s heartbreaking when a mother uses her child for clout, putting likes above love. Children shouldn’t bear the weight of fame, shame, or adult egos."
Others, such as @MelfordBenson, questioned the paternity claims, suggesting legal action or arrest to resolve the matter. @mumaijay called for child services to intervene and for Cubana Chiefpriest to conduct a DNA test to clarify responsibility.
Related Context and Broader Implications
This incident adds a fresh layer to the ongoing saga, highlighting issues of child welfare and parental responsibility in celebrity disputes. Earlier, Cubana Chiefpriest had criticized the Monday sit-at-home culture in South-East Nigeria, calling it self-sabotage that cripples education and business. He argued for economic prosperity and the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu as solutions to restore normalcy in the region.
The viral video underscores the need for protective measures for children caught in public conflicts, with many urging authorities to prioritize the child's safety over media sensationalism.
