In a viral twist of online drama, a Nigerian lady known as Becky, a student at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), has denied ever being in a relationship — moments after being pampered and treated to a lavish date by popular media personality and philanthropist, Asherkine.
Asherkine, known for surprising random individuals with gifts and royal treatment, reportedly picked Becky out from a crowd of students during a recent campus visit. During a filmed interview, Becky declared she had never been in a relationship, which seemingly made her an ideal candidate for Asherkine’s latest generosity — sparking cheers and praise from onlookers.
However, the internet soon exploded when a young man surfaced claiming to be Becky’s boyfriend of two years. He released screenshots of alleged chats with Becky, where she told him she was going home to see her mother, while she was, in fact, enjoying a luxurious date with Asherkine. The jilted man expressed shock and heartbreak, stating that Becky had been lying to him and that he felt used and humiliated by her actions.
Social media users were divided. Some blasted Becky for deceit and opportunism, while others argued the boyfriend’s screenshots were inconclusive and Becky owed no explanations for moving on with her life. Asherkine has not publicly commented on the controversy, focusing instead on sharing clips from his other philanthropic efforts.
Becky herself has remained silent on the issue, neither confirming nor denying the alleged boyfriend’s claims, further fueling speculation.
This incident highlights the risks of public generosity in the age of social media, where private lives become fodder for digital scrutiny. For now, Asherkine continues to trend as the “street king” of goodwill, while Becky navigates the storm of online judgment and debate.
Stay tuned for updates as this developing story unfolds.
