Nigerian singer Paul Okoye (Rudeboy) has threatened to use “every necessary means” to find and sue a social-media user who alleged he coerced a former domestic worker, a claim the singer called defamatory.

The controversy ignited after photos from the 25th birthday celebration of Rudeboy’s wife, Ivy Ifeoma, drew attention on X (formerly Twitter).

Attack from Feminists

A user who goes by @Zoyablooms, who describes herself as an ‘Evil Feminist, ‘ mocked the age gap, and another user, @darkskinnedtemi, who also describes herself as a feminist, asked whether Rudeboy “also cheat on his wife with their housemaid.”

A third account, @chubbiedivah, under the same umbrella, then posted a more serious allegation claiming the singer “raped/coerced their domestic help. She’s the help, how could she say no? plus she was most likely wayyyy younger.”

She continued, “When he was found out, he sent his wife and sister-in-law at the time out of the house. very yanmayanma nigga.”

Rudeboy’s response

Fans brought the posts to Rudeboy’s attention, and the singer replied publicly on X, writing that he would find the user and “use every necessary means, power, resources and money” to hold them to account.

In his words, “I hardly reply !!! But you see this one !!!
@chubbiedivah if you like go private , leave X !! I will find you , I will use every necessary means , power , resources and money !!! You will face the law , I will use you to set an example!! (scapegoat )… your only way out is to leave the surface of this earth and relocate to space .. to everyone that brought my attention to her tweet … thank you 🙏🏾.”

Account deactivated

After Rudeboy’s response gained traction, the account @chubbiedivah deactivated her profiles both on X and Instagram, exiting the platforms in an attempt to escape the wrath promised by Rudeboy.

GucciStarboi penned: “Nice one, these bushrats go reduce their s!lly attitude of accusing innocent men of r9pe, bushrats!”

UnkleAyo stated: “I know I’ve replied 3 times. No vex. I don’t want you to miss any information. In case you need her pictures so you can print big big “wanted” banners, here you go. Before they beg you to forgive her, she called you: – paedophile – yamayama nigga – rapist. No gree o.”

Ssaasquatch opined: “Paul, whatever you do, please keep it legal. Ignore anyone pushing you to “teach her a lesson” outside the law. Don’t bully, don’t intimidate. If you must get your revenge, let it be strictly within the ambits of the law. I know you’re angry, but remember that wisdom is profitable to direct.”

She said with conviction that you cheated on your lovely and amiable wife with a housemaid who they insinuated is way more younger.
Mr. Paul Okoye, I love you as a brother…
Please take this up!”
