According to him, some individuals openly promote ritual services online and attract engagement from users.
“Abi them say people are advertising rituals on TikTok. Ritual is advertised on TikTok,” he said.
“Native medicine, I have seen three people advertising, and people are engaging. One of the women was live from her shrine. And people were like, ‘Mama, how can I reach you?’ with a phone number.”

“When the TVC interview came out, people were saying maybe I’m gay. I’m like Lagos is full of married gay people,” he stated.
In other news…. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has shared encouraging news about the state of Nigeria’s economy, highlighting that many state governments no longer need to borrow money to pay salaries. This marks a significant shift from past years, when borrowing just to meet basic payroll obligations was common.
Speaking on the nation’s economic progress, President Tinubu said the improvement reflects better financial management and stronger revenue generation at both the federal and state levels. He noted that these changes show the country is moving toward a more stable and self-sufficient economy.
The president’s remarks come as part of his broader efforts to reassure Nigerians that government finances are on the right track. Experts suggest that if this trend continues, it could boost public confidence, attract investment, and create more opportunities for growth across the country.
For many Nigerians, the message is clear: the era of states struggling to pay salaries without borrowing may be coming to an end, signaling hope for a more secure economic future.
