Nigerian singer Keshinro Ololade, popularly known as Lil Kesh, has stirred conversations online following his reaction to the wedding of his rumoured ex-girlfriend, Priscilla Ojo.
The daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo recently tied the knot with her Tanzanian lover, Juma Jux, in a star-studded traditional and white wedding ceremony that dominated social media trends for days.
Joining the list of well-wishers, Lil Kesh took to the micro-blogging platform X (formerly Twitter) to congratulate Priscilla. Referring to her by the pet name “P Coco,” he wrote, “Congratulations, P Coco. God bless your union.”
While the message seemed harmless, it triggered backlash from netizens who questioned his choice of words. Many criticized the singer for using an old nickname linked to their alleged past relationship, accusing him of trying to stir attention.
Some of the reactions include:
-
“We don’t care. She’s married. Move on, geez.” – @I_am_the_mot
-
“Which one is P Coco? What happened to Mrs. Mkambala?” – @Bt_apparel
-
“He should have shut up because we didn’t even know they dated.” – @Omomommy_xoxo
-
“P Coco is diabolical; why wish her well using a name from the past?” – @Nurseanitaa
Recall that in 2019, rumours spread about a romantic relationship between Lil Kesh and Priscilla, fueled by their frequent appearances together and her cameo in one of his music videos. However, Priscilla later denied the claims in an interview with BBC Pidgin.
Priscilla, who keeps her relationship life largely private, was also linked to singer Kizz Daniel in 2022, after being spotted with him during his UK tour.
