Social media commentator Verydarkman has shared his thoughts on the ongoing online discussions involving singer Chike and Sandra Edoho, the ex-wife of media personality Frank Edoho.

In a video circulating online, Verydarkman spoke about the temptations that can come with fame and popularity, noting that celebrities often attract attention from different kinds of people.

He stated that he personally avoids getting involved with married women because of the complications and consequences such relationships can bring.

The commentator added that while he would not criticize ordinary conversations between adults, he believes people should exercise self-control and avoid situations that could lead to controversy or damage relationships.

He said …

“Popularity attracts different people to you, both single and married, women and even men will make advances at you. But the one wey me I know I don tell myself no matter what I will never carry myself go Comot married woman cloth. Wetin I wan talk say I dey find. The curse wey follow that thing too big.

If say Chiké get control, e go know say this place wey I wan go no good….”
