Eunice Oluwafunmilayo
Nollywood Actress, Etinosa Idemudia has chastised Nigerian comedian and dancer Anita Asuoha popularly known as ‘Real Warri pikin’ for filming her condolence visit for Ada Ameh in Abuja.
Ada Amah was reportedly slumped and died on Sunday July 17 after having a nice meal with her family in Delta State.
Ada Ameh’s best friend, Empress Njamah had set up a condolence register in Abuja for the late actress which had celebrities in attendance
Warri Pikin who was among the celebrities invited, was left heartbroken as she sob hysterically as she pays her last respect to Ameh.
Warri Pikin was seen comforting Empress Njamah in the video she shared on her Instagram page as she sobbed.
The comedian also praised Empress Njamah for standing by Ada Ameh.
“Your kind is rare. May you live long on Earth! Rip”.
Etinosa, on the other hand, took issue with the video and reprimanded Warri Pikin for capturing the tragic event in the comments section.
She asserted that Warri Pikin is only using the death of the late actress Ada Ameh to gain influence.
She claimed that Warri Pikin wouldn’t tell her P.A. to hold the camera and record her actions if she were truly moved and not doing it for publicity.
She went on to say that the comic even had the guts to add a music and edit.

Etinosa called her action offensive. She added that though clout is good for business but this one is unkind.
“I feel we can all drop our phones and cameras and really do the condolence visit we came for. Imagine me seeing someone recording himself or herself coming to my father’s house for condolence. I would have destroyed that camera. Let’s all be emotionally sensitive, emotionally involved and emotionally genuine. Not everything is CONTENT. Well. I guess. We all grieve differently.
“If you are really touched, If it is not just a publicity sighting for you, you will not have mind to tell your P.A hold the camera. As I’m walking in the recording. Record everybody. As she’s crying record her. Then you sat down, edited, even put soundtrack. No. It’s offensive. Clout is good for business but this one is nit nice”.
Eloswag, a former contestant on Big Brother Naija Season 7, has broken his silence following the release of his private video online.
The reality star reportedly uploaded a clip featuring himself and an unidentified woman on his Snapchat account at approximately 3 a.m. on Sunday.
Though Eloswag swiftly deleted the video, it had already caught the attention of the internet.
The explicit content quickly gained traction after being reposted by the controversial gossip blog, Gistlover, sparking widespread conversations across social media platforms.
In response to the incident, Eloswag took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his frustration and consider possible legal action.
In a now-deleted post, he wrote, “I mistakenly posted a video on my Snapchat by 3am and deleted it immediately, guess who has the video? GISTLOVER? How? Please, can I sue? Because it doesn’t make sense.”

The reality star’s reaction highlights the challenges celebrities face when intimate content finds its way online.
While some supporters have shown empathy, others have engaged in heated debates about the responsibility of public figures in handling their digital content.
Eloswag’s predicament places him alongside other Nigerian celebrities who have dealt with similar scandals, such as Moyo Lawal, Tiwa Savage, Oxlade, and James Brown, whose private videos have previously surfaced online.
Legal experts have weighed in on Eloswag’s potential case, noting that while pursuing legal action against individuals or platforms that share such content can be complex, it is not impossible.
The development has reignited discussions on digital privacy and the ethical responsibilities of content-sharing platforms.
As Eloswag’s fans and critics await further updates, the incident underscores the precarious nature of online privacy and the far-reaching consequences of a single momentary lapse.
