Nigerian singer Paul Okoye, also known as Rudeboy, found himself embroiled in controversy after making remarks about women and wigs, leading to a heated exchange with a wig vendor on social media.
In an Instagram story, Rudeboy criticized women who prioritize wigs for self-improvement, suggesting they focus on developing their intellect instead. This statement triggered a response from a wig vendor who called out Rudeboy’s own romantic choices, alleging hypocrisy in his comments.
The situation escalated as Rudeboy resorted to body shaming in private messages, targeting the vendor’s appearance and weight. The exchange spilled over onto the vendor’s Instagram page, where Rudeboy continued to hurl insults.
Rudeboy’s actions drew criticism for perpetuating harmful stereotypes and promoting body shaming, sparking a debate on social media about respect and empathy.
This incident comes after Rudeboy’s previous confrontation with a woman over her sense of entitlement, where he expressed frustration with ingratitude and entitlement in society.
