Fans were divided, some rushed to express concern, while others called it a clout-chasing stunt.

3. DJ Cuppy’s AI-Generated Husband
The billionaire heiress took satire to tech levels by introducing her digital soulmate.
– The Prank: She announced on X (Twitter): “I’ve decided to create my own Christian husband via AI. His name is ElijahGPT… He tithes digitally”.

Dj Cuppy’s joke
The post went viral, with fans jokingly asking for ElijahGPT’s brother or a tutorial. Cuppy later confirmed it was a joke, with the April fool’s day hashtag but the idea of AI husbands had people talking.
4. Wunmi Toriola’s Fake Ministry Calling
The Yoruba movie star had fans doing a double take with a spiritual prank.
– The Prank: She posted, “Good morning, lovers. I have finally heeded the voice of the Lord. I have picked up His call…”, and even signing off as “Evangelist WT”.

5. Regina Chukwu’s Snake Bite Scare
The actress sparked a mini-crisis with a fake emergency.
– The Prank: She wrote, “Pls help, snake just bite a small boy here…”, leaving fans confused before the April Fool’s reveal.

Regina Chukwu’s prank
Fans love seeing celebs act normal with playful jokes, like Funke’s wedding tease or Cuppy’s AI humor. Bobrisky’s arrest prank rubbed some the wrong way, proving that timing and sensitivity matter. From digital husbands to divine callings, these pranks showed how social media amplifies April Fool’s chaos.
While some pranks were pure fun (looking at you, ElijahGPT), others walked a fine line between humor and headache. One thing’s clear: Nigerian celebs know how to keep social media on its toes!

Nancy Isime Reveals She May Not Have Children.
Nigerian actress and television host Nancy Isime has ignited online discussions after sharing her thoughts on parenthood, suggesting that she may choose not to have children.
The media personality made the remarks during a recent appearance on the “Thanks For Coming” podcast when she was asked about the number of children she hopes to have in the future. Instead of giving a direct answer, Isime reflected on the realities of life and the responsibilities that come with raising a child.

According to her, the challenges people face daily have influenced the way she thinks about bringing children into the world. She questioned whether having children is always the ultimate expression of love, arguing that life often comes with struggles that no one can completely avoid.
During the discussion, Isime pointed to the pressures many individuals deal with, including emotional, financial and personal difficulties. She suggested that anyone considering parenthood must also think about the kind of world future generations will inherit. Her comments reflected a broader conversation that has gained attention globally, as some people increasingly weigh social and economic realities when making decisions about starting a family.
Despite her remarks, the actress did not say she has completely ruled out having children. Instead, she explained that her views are shaped by what she sees as the realities and responsibilities of bringing a child into the world, adding that every generation experiences its own form of hardship.

The interview quickly drew attention on social media, where clips of her comments circulated widely. While some users agreed with her perspective on the challenges of parenthood, others disagreed, arguing that the decision to have children is deeply personal.
Isime’s comments have continued to generate discussion online, with many viewers sharing differing opinions on her stance. However, the actress’s remarks stopped short of confirming a final decision, leaving her comments as a reflection on her current outlook rather than a definitive statement about whether she will become a mother.

Ini Dima-Okojie announced the birth of her baby boy with husband Abasi Ene-Obong on Wednesday, and the way she broke the news was nothing like what her fans would expect. She turned 36 on June 24, 2026, and instead of her usual birthday routine, she shared something far more personal.
Those who follow Ini on Instagram know her birthday posts are always an elaborate affair;themed concepts, and carefully planned photoshoots. This year, none of that happened. She posted a few simple hospital photos of herself holding her newborn son, with a heartfelt caption.

“Every year, my birthday comes with a photoshoot, glam, and a carefully planned concept. This year, none of that felt quite right. Instead, I’m sharing a photo from the day my son was born. The day my life changed forever. Because as special as every birthday has been, this one feels different. This year, I celebrate as a mother,” she wrote.
She did not stop there. “There is no role I have ever played that has humbled me, stretched me, challenged me, or filled my heart quite like this one. These past weeks have been some of the most beautiful, overwhelming, exhausting, and rewarding of my life.”
She called her son “the cutest boy with the sweetest dimples” and said getting to know him has been “the greatest gift.” She also admitted motherhood gave her a new respect for every woman raising a child. “The newborn phase is no joke, and I definitely didn’t fully understand what was waiting for me. But even on the hardest days, I wouldn’t trade this journey for anything.”

She wrapped it all up with: “I feel incredibly grateful that God chose me for this responsibility. Today, I celebrate another year of life, but even more than that, I celebrate the privilege of being his mum.”
Ini had announced her pregnancy back in April, sharing a post of herself in a flowing white gown showing off her baby bump. The comments section has since been filled with warm congratulations from fans and Nollywood colleagues sharing their love and well wishes for the new family.
