Linking Mandy Kiss’ Name with Nigeria is an Aberration: A Caution to Unprofessional Content Creators


 


The recent story of  content creator Ayomiposi Oluwadahunsi, better known as Mandy Kiss, attempting to “take in 100 men in one day” for a supposed Guinness World Record (GWR), has stirred global attention. Thankfully, GWR promptly rejected the bizarre idea, stating, “We don’t monitor such.” Yet, the mere association of Nigeria with such a scandal is troubling.



Nigeria is a nation of immense promise, celebrated for groundbreaking achievements in arts, sports, innovation, and resilience. To link the country’s name to an outlandish stunt is not just embarrassing, it is an aberration. Our global identity should not be reduced to clout-driven antics that serve no constructive purpose.


This moment should also serve as a caution to unprofessional content creators. The digital space offers endless opportunities for creativity, influence, and impact, but chasing shock value at the expense of dignity and national reputation is a dangerous path. In the quest for quick fame, many forget that every content leaves an imprint, not only on their personal brand but also on the collective image of the nation they represent.



True creators distinguish themselves through originality, value-driven messages, and professional discipline. Clout fades, but meaningful content builds legacies.


Mandy Kiss’ failed stunt is a reminder that Nigeria deserves better ambassadors in the digital world. Our stories, culture, and talents are too rich to be overshadowed by reckless sensationalism. Let every Nigerian content creator take heed: creativity without responsibility is not influence, it is noise.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
