A video of Dieko Afolayan, the son of renowned filmmaker Kunle Afolayan, has stirred mixed reactions online.
The video, which quickly went viral, shows the fashion model displaying his outfit and a designer bag at a store.
In the clip, Dieko is seen wearing jeans and a t-shirt, dancing in a style that some observers deemed effeminate.
Some viewers expressed concerns about the implications of the video. A user, @Samuel__szn, commented, “Please God, I want a MALE SON and a FEMALE DAUGHTER.”
Similarly, @nuggetman1_ wrote, “God abeg if my male child go later become woman, let me know when e still dey inside belle.” Other reactions conveyed a mix of fear and humor.
Another user, @sodyOka4, reflected the worries of parenthood, saying, “One of those palpable fears that grips you once in a while as a parent, knowing fully well you cannot wish or pray it away.”
@KcOfoegbu added a societal dimension, remarking, “With that level of Japa that has occurred in the last decade from Nigeria, I’m sorry to say but a lot of people’s kids are going to turn out this way.”
On the other hand, some seemed to accept the situation, with @therealdotun noting, “E dun dey clear small small. He go soon come out fully.”
While the video has sparked debate, the young model’s style and expression have kept fans talking.
