An old video from 2021 featuring Nigerian hype man Fisayo Michael, popularly known as MC Fish, has resurfaced on social media platforms. In the video, MC Fish passionately explains why he washed the underwear of his then-wife, Nollywood actress Anita Joseph. The clip has gained renewed attention following the official confirmation of their marriage collapse in 2026, with many Nigerians mocking the hype man for his past statements.
MC Fish's Heartfelt Explanation in Resurfaced Video
In the viral video, MC Fish detailed his reasons for performing domestic chores for Anita Joseph, specifically mentioning washing her underwear. He emphasized that his actions were driven by the immense respect and royal treatment he received from the actress. According to MC Fish, Anita consistently consulted him before making decisions and treated him like a king, which motivated him to reciprocate with equal respect and care.
"Before she makes decisions she tells me. What more can I ask for? A woman that respects me and treats me like a king, I must respect her back. If I have to wash her shoes in public, I will wash it. If I have to wash her undies, I will. It's not like I am not even doing it already," MC Fish declared in the old footage. He further argued that since Anita washed his boxers, it was only fair for him to wash her pants, asserting that their marital dynamics were nobody else's business.
Social Media Reactions and Public Taunting
The resurfacing of this video has ignited a flurry of reactions across Nigerian social media circles. Many users have taken to platforms like Instagram to taunt MC Fish, particularly in light of his recent romantic involvement with a new girlfriend. Comments ranged from sarcastic remarks about the marriage's failure to debates about gender roles in relationships.
One user, vheeny_, commented, "What more can I ask for don leave marriage comot," while another, homachiglere, defended MC Fish by stating, "Wait o. So because a man washed his wife's undies, that is now evidence of stup1dity? When did responsibility become disgrace? If the marriage worked, you'd call him romantic." Other reactions highlighted broader issues such as financial independence in marriages, with ifunanya_official noting, "Make money ooooo, please Make money. It is not easy for married people. Once you don't have your own money, you must suffer insult in marriage."
Background on the Marriage Collapse
The resurgence of this video comes amidst widespread reports about the end of MC Fish and Anita Joseph's marriage. Earlier in 2026, romantic photos and videos of MC Fish with a new girlfriend began trending online, just months after news broke that his marriage to Anita had officially ended. Filmmaker Stanley Ontop weighed in on the drama, alleging that MC Fish left Anita for another woman, though he did not provide specific reasons for the breakup. Stanley claimed that Anita caught her husband red-handed, leading to her sending him packing from their home.
Anita Joseph has since broken her silence on the matter, eliciting further reactions from fans and followers. The old video of MC Fish, originally shared in 2021, now serves as a poignant reminder of their past relationship, contrasting sharply with their current separate lives. As the online discourse continues, the clip underscores the complexities of celebrity marriages and the public scrutiny that often accompanies them in Nigeria's entertainment industry.
