A video has gone viral showing a heated confrontation between a Nigerian woman and her husband after she discovered that a young girl he brought into their home abroad was not his niece as he had claimed.
In the footage, the wife, speaking in an Igbo accent, berates her husband for deceiving her about the identity of Chioma, who was brought into their home.
The wife, visibly agitated, demands that Chioma leave their home while accusing her husband of lying about the girl’s relationship with him.
“Did you tell me she was your daughter? You told me she was your niece. I will post you. People will know you for who you are. You are a devil. Get out of this house, Chioma,” she exclaimed.
“I will tear every one of your clothes. Is she your daughter?”
The confrontation escalates, with the husband attempting to calm his wife down and pleading with her to stop recording the scene.
The wife, however, remains distraught, instructing the other children present to go upstairs and repeatedly pointing at Chioma, insisting that she should leave the house.
The video has sparked a mixed reaction from the public, with some people supporting the wife’s anger and others criticising her for involving the child.
BBNaija’s Queen Atang weighed in on the situation, saying that while the wife’s anger is understandable, the woman should not have blamed Chioma.
“To every single mother out there, hear me clearly: hustle hard, harder if you must. To take care of your child. No woman, and I mean no woman, will ever love your child more than you do. Did you notice how her tone shifted when speaking to her own child? Even in anger, she was gentle. That’s a mother. Anger never fully touches where her child is concerned,” she wrote on Instagram.
“And to the men, stop with the lies. You’re breaking lives.”

This woman is extremely hurt.
Her reactions, not be the best but the deliberate and obvious attempt to water down her hurt in the comments is quite painful.
Her husband and the child played uncle and niece to deceive her all this while, his family too deceived her for years. https://t.co/ljUFblFRmI— 🦋Madam Stardust ✨🦋 (@Madam_Stardust) April 10, 2025

They are now blaming the woman for acting out due to betrayal. But a whole husband refused to disclose that he had a child before marriage. Had over 3 kids & brought in the external child as his niece and now madam is going bunkers due to the betrayal. I pray they heal from this.

Guess he had her before marriage and didn’t tell the wife before marriage then brought her to stay with them saying she is his niece…Her anger is very very valid but I think she is overreacting bringing this online and saying the child to leave…to where??. https://t.co/SDPcNTNB7s

Over my dead body will I deny any of my offspring.
Even the kids are begging her, and she’s still furious.
I understand that it can be painful, but it is what it is. https://t.co/5Yqb1AbSRa
