Why Do You All Want The Banky W’s News To Be True?

Why Do You All Want The Banky W’s News To Be True?

Yesterday, a faceless blog that has gained the notoriety of posting breaking controversial news on social media posted that a certain popular man is cheating on his wife. The blogger did not mention the names of the celebrity couple they are referring to but the blogger gave specific details that made some people put two on two together and arrive at the conclusion that the man being referred to is Banky W, a famous Nigerian singer, politician and now preacher and the wife that’s being cheated on is Adesua Etomi, a popular Nigerian actress.

Since yesterday, social media have gone agog with bloggers and internet users sharing and resharing the news. Some are praying and hoping it isn’t true while some are milking the news, creating memes out of it and using the news as a clickbait to their sites/pages. 

The large number of people that want this news to be true is insane and it got me wondering why news like this excites people. This is to show how fast ill news travels and how much people want what is working for others to fail; religious people will call people like these “enemies of progress”.What is more ridiculous is that nobody can ascertain the truthfulness of this news, for what it’s worth, it could be fake news; nobody can tell if it’s true or the faceless blogger just needed the Banky W story to promote the blog. Some faceless bloggers will conjecture up news which can be fake and mobs will camp on the news, harassing the people allegedly referred to, hoping for the news to be true. Some have camped on the social media pages of Banky W harassing him and insulting the life out of him for cheating on his wife.

Even if the news is true, what business of theirs is it, how does it affect them, why are they taking it so personal and why are they even advising Adesua to leave her husband over some cheating scandal which they cannot verify or ascertain the truthfulness of.

It is wicked and vile to wish for the breaking down of someone’s marriage and you are a witch if a news like this that will shatter the sacred union of people who are presumably having a good time excites you. Some podcasters have hosted podcasts over this news, milking the trend, some have even hosted Instagram live over this topic; over some news which may not be true.

Of the truth, misery loves company.
