Social Media Erupts Over Viral Video of Autistic OPM Member Eating with Wife's Guidance
A Nigerian man's detailed observation about a viral video showing the autistic adopted son of Omega Power Ministries (OPM) founder eating with his wife's assistance has sparked intense online debate and discussion across social media platforms.
The Viral Video That Captured National Attention
The controversy centers around a video showing Aboy, also known as Elijah Chibuzor, the autistic adopted son of Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere, eating a meal while his newlywed wife guides him on proper feeding techniques and cutlery usage. The couple married on March 29, 2026, in a ceremony that immediately went viral across Nigerian social media.
Following the wedding, the video of Aboy's mealtime with his wife emerged online, showing the woman patiently assisting her husband with fundamental eating skills. This intimate moment quickly spread across various platforms, drawing mixed reactions from observers nationwide.
Detailed Observation from Facebook User Alama Daniel
Identified on Facebook as Alama Daniel, the observant Nigerian man shared his detailed analysis of the viral video, noting significant developments in Aboy's capabilities. In his Facebook post, Daniel highlighted several key observations about the autistic man's progress.
"Jesus Christ____Truly There's Nothing Too Hard For God To Do," Daniel wrote in his caption. "Mr. Aboy Chibuzor Can Now Feed Himself, He Is Now Holding A Spoon Comfortably. Can You Guys Also See His Composure? God Has Really Turn Things Around For Good For This Woman."
The Facebook user continued with a prophetic declaration about the marriage: "She Will Enjoy Aboy o..... Fresh Bl()()D. This Marriage Is Divine!" His post quickly gained traction, attracting numerous comments and shares across the platform.
Mixed Reactions Flood Social Media Platforms
The observation post triggered a flood of reactions from social media users, with opinions sharply divided about the marriage arrangement and the public nature of the couple's interactions.
Facebook user Alista Ameh defended the online sharing, commenting: "For all those complaining about why the woman is posting everything online, please note that this is an online marriage and we the online people need to know virtually everything to be sure that Aboy is okay."
Another commenter, identified as Favorite Voke Hardtuth, offered a different perspective on the arrangement: "I hope some of you ignorant ones especially those taking their wives for granted can learn from this. This man could have easily gotten a nanny, a babysitter, nurse or full-time caregiver but one thing you should note is these ones will go live their lives somewhere one day and they will resign. But you see a wife, her life is certain and it's forever with her husband until Christ comes."
The commenter continued with a pointed observation: "So those people who have big mouths to question this man's actions about getting him a wife lack understanding. He just got him a forever caregiver especially if the woman is really who she claims to be."
Miracle Nonye expressed support for the couple, simply stating: "Seriously I love what I'm seeing from the couple."
Background of the Controversial Marriage
The marriage between Aboy and his wife generated significant controversy from its announcement, with many observers expressing joy over the union while others questioned various aspects of the arrangement. According to reports, the woman received monetary gifts and other substantial presents for agreeing to marry the autistic man.
In related developments, the woman who married Aboy has previously opened up about her reasons for entering the marriage, though specific details of her explanation were not included in the viral observation post. Meanwhile, Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere has shared his own observations about changes in his adopted son following the wedding ceremony.
The OPM founder posted a picture of the couple a day after their wedding and shared what he noticed about the newlywed man's development and behavior. These observations added another layer to the ongoing public discussion about the marriage and its implications.
Broader Implications and Continuing Discussion
The viral video and subsequent observation post have highlighted broader conversations about disability, marriage, and social media's role in personal relationships in Nigeria. The intense reaction demonstrates how such personal moments can quickly become national talking points in the digital age.
As the discussion continues to unfold across social media platforms, the video of Aboy eating with his wife's guidance remains a focal point for debates about autism, caregiving relationships, and the boundaries of public versus private life in contemporary Nigerian society.
