Influencer Cute Abiola has come under heavy criticism after sharing an hour-long video on YouTube showing his wife’s childbirth surgery, with many accusing him of exploiting a deeply private family moment for content and profit.
Some social media users say the decision raises ethical questions about privacy, consent and the growing trend of monetising personal family milestones on digital platforms.
The video captures emotional scenes on the day of surgery, including Cute Abiola waiting outside the theatre in distress and offering prayers for his wife’s safety, saying: “I beg you God, please, I wish my wife safe delivery.”
Critics have condemned the post, arguing that repeated surgeries and intimate medical experiences should not be monetised, while others defend the couple, describing the video as a testimony of faith and resilience amid ongoing debate over oversharing online.
Public reaction remains sharply divided across platforms as discussions continue online and media scrutiny.
