Reality TV personality and comedian Aderombi Adedayo Martin has criticised gospel singer Yinka Alaseyori for apologising over comments she made regarding insecurity in Nigeria.

Alaseyori had come under criticism after stating during a live prayer session that the Nigerian government was making efforts to address insecurity and urging Nigerians to pray for President Bola Tinubu and security agencies.

Her comments were made amid public concern over the abduction of schoolchildren and teachers in Oyo State.

Following the backlash, the gospel singer released a video on Wednesday apologising to Nigerians for her remarks.

Reacting to the apology, DeeOne expressed disappointment, arguing that the singer should not have withdrawn her comments because of public criticism.

According to him, Alaseyori’s original remarks were made while she was spiritually inspired, and he believed she apologised due to pressure from critics.

“Mrs Yinka Alaseyori, first of all, I want to thank you and thank God for your ministry. God has used you a lot, but what you did today, please don’t ever try it again,” he said in a video shared online.

DeeOne maintained that Alaseyori’s message encouraging prayer was not wrong and suggested that she should have sought spiritual guidance before issuing a public apology.

He claimed the singer may have been influenced by concerns about public perception and future invitations to events.

“Is what you said wrong? No, but pressure made you apologise. You chose to displease God to please men,” he said.

The comedian further advised the singer to remain steadfast in her convictions despite criticism, adding that public opinion should not dictate the actions of a minister of the gospel.

The exchange has generated mixed reactions on social media, with some users supporting Alaseyori’s decision to apologise while others agreed with DeeOne’s position that she should have stood by her original remarks.

Nigeria’s menstrual health landscape is set for a major transformation with the introduction of Girls Tag, the country’s first all-in-one period care kit. At the forefront of this groundbreaking launch are actress and philanthropist Mercy Johnson-Okojie and her daughter Purity Okojie, who have been unveiled as co-brand ambassadors. Their involvement underscores the brand’s mission to combine authenticity, family values, and empowerment in addressing one of the most pressing challenges facing young girls today.

For years, inadequate access to menstrual education and hygiene products has left many Nigerian girls unprepared for their first period. Girls Tag was created to bridge this gap, offering a complete solution that blends practical care with educational support. By doing so, it aims to normalize conversations around puberty and ensure that families have the tools to guide their daughters with confidence.

Mercy Johnson-Okojie explained why the initiative resonates deeply with her: “As a mother, I want my daughter to step into womanhood without fear or embarrassment. Girls Tag is doing exactly that—helping families replace shame with pride and confusion with confidence.”

A key highlight of the Girls Tag kit is Mercy’s newly authored book, “Youberty”, a puberty guide for boys and girls aged 10–13. The book, included in every pack, provides relatable advice and reassurance, ensuring that children feel understood and prepared as they navigate adolescence. This educational component sets Girls Tag apart, making it not just a product but a holistic support system.

The kit itself is carefully curated to meet the diverse needs of young girls. It includes premium sanitary pads in multiple sizes, overnight period pants for maximum absorbency, panty liners, disposable bags for safe disposal, and a stylish, discreet carrying pouch. Together, these items provide comfort, dignity, and ease, ensuring that girls can manage their periods confidently both at home and in school.

Eddie Madaki and Oche Ejiga of iBlend Services, the regional agency for Girls Tag, emphasized the strategic importance of the partnership: “Mercy and Purity’s voices are genuine. Their journey together mirrors the experiences of countless Nigerian families, making them the perfect ambassadors for Girls Tag. This collaboration positions the brand perfectly for the Nigerian audience.”

Girls Tag is scheduled to be available nationwide in Q2 2026, through retail outlets, pharmacies, and malls, as well as direct sales via the official website and social media handle @girlstag.ng. The brand’s distribution strategy ensures accessibility, making it possible for families across Nigeria to benefit from this innovative solution.

With Mercy Johnson-Okojie and Purity leading the charge, Girls Tag is more than a product launch—it is a business innovation with social impact. It represents a cultural shift toward normalizing menstrual health, empowering families, and ensuring that every girl grows up with pride, knowledge, and confidence.
