The internet is ablaze with reactions following a now-viral video showing a University of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN) 300 Level student, identified as Becky, allegedly denying her long term boyfriend to enjoy a day of luxury and gifts with popular Nigerian content creator Asherkine.
The unfolding drama began when Asherkine, well known for surprising random ladies with lavish experiences for his social media content, visited the UNN campus in Enugu State.
In one of his recent videos, he approached Becky, a 300-level undergraduate at the institution, and struck up a casual conversation.
During their interaction, he asked Becky whether she had a boyfriend. She confidently responded, “No, I’ve never had a boyfriend before.”
Although Asherkine appeared skeptical, Becky stood by her claim. The content creator proceeded to select her for his popular “flexing” series, where he treats women to extravagant experiences.
Becky was whisked away on a shopping spree and pampered with expensive gifts including groceries, luxury items, and an iPhone 16. As part of the experience, she was even flown to Abuja on a commercial flight for a day of high-end shopping.
However, the excitement quickly turned into controversy.
Shortly after the video went viral, social media detectives unearthed evidence allegedly identifying Becky as the girlfriend of a man named Kenny.
According to reports, Ken has been financially supporting Becky through her academic journey, including paying her school fees and handling her family expenses. A leaked chat allegedly from Ken revealed that he recently paid ₦470,000 for Becky’s mother’s hospital bills.
Heartbroken and stunned by Becky’s public denial, Ken expressed deep emotional pain over the betrayal. The chat indicated his shock and grief at Becky’s actions, especially after years of investment and commitment to her wellbeing.
The incident ignited a storm on social media platforms, with thousands of users weighing in on the drama. The story quickly evolved from a lighthearted influencer video to a cautionary tale on love, trust, and loyalty.
Many users sympathized with Ken, questioning the morality of Becky’s actions. One commenter wrote, “I can never trust a woman again.
How do you deny someone who pays your mother’s hospital bills for an iPhone?” Another user criticized Ken, suggesting he was “too soft” and should have been more cautious with his emotional and financial investments.
Others defended Becky, arguing that her decisions may be more complex than they appear. Some users even praised her for seizing an opportunity to improve her life, regardless of the controversy it stirred.
Asherkine, on his part, has not issued any public statement regarding the revelations. The video remains on his official page, continuing to attract millions of views and heated debate.
The story has opened wider conversations around relationships, campus life, financial dependency, and the perceived dangers of social media fame. It serves as yet another example of how content creation and virality can dramatically alter real-life relationships sometimes for the worse.
As of now, neither Becky nor Ken has given an official interview or further statement on the matter. But one thing is certain: the tale of Becky, Ken, and Asherkine has left a lasting imprint on Nigeria’s social media landscape, sparking emotional reactions and uncomfortable truths.
