“Don’t Bring Your Nonsense Near My Family” — Skales Fires Back After Comment About His Daughter Sparks Outrage
Nigerian singer and songwriter Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, popularly known as Skales, has issued a stern warning to a user on 𝕏 (formerly Twitter) after a comment involving his young daughter crossed what he considered a red line.
The incident began when Skales shared an adorable photo of himself seated in a car with his daughter. In the post, the Shake Body crooner affectionately referred to her as his “passenger princess” and openly expressed his deep love for her.
The wholesome post quickly gained traction online, drawing admiration and heart-melting reactions from fans and fellow celebrities who praised the visible bond between father and child.
However, the positive mood shifted abruptly after a user identified as WisdomCN commented on the photo, saying, “The girl too resemble Wizkid, very beautiful.” While the remark may have appeared complimentary to some, Skales did not find it amusing or appropriate.
Clearly angered, the artist responded with a strong warning, emphasizing his stance on keeping his family out of online banter and comparisons. “You see if una wan dey do una nonsense no bring am near my family… you no go like wetin I go do you,” Skales wrote, making it clear that any perceived disrespect involving his child would not be tolerated.
Skales has long been known for being fiercely protective of his private life, especially when it comes to his daughter. His reaction also came at a sensitive time, as Wizkid has recently been at the center of multiple online controversies, making any mention of the Afrobeats superstar particularly loaded.
Adding more context to the situation, tensions have been high within the Nigerian entertainment space following a separate online feud between Seun Kuti and Wizkid. The clash reportedly escalated after Wizkid made a controversial remark about Seun Kuti’s wife, sparking widespread debate and criticism across social media platforms.
This ongoing drama may have further influenced Skales’ zero-tolerance response to seeing Wizkid’s name associated with his family.
Ultimately, the incident highlights how public figures continue to draw firm boundaries around their loved ones, reminding social media users that not every comment—no matter how “harmless” it seems—will be welcomed, especially when children are involved.
