Popular Nigerian skit maker and comedian, Oga Sabinus, has publicly addressed the swirling rumours concerning his marital status and relationship with the mother of his child, Ciana Chapman. The comedian, whose real name is Chukwuemeka Ejekwu, set the record straight during a live streaming session with fellow content creator Carter Efe.

In a candid moment that has since gone viral, Sabinus directly confronted the persistent gossip. "I'm not married. For those carrying rumours, I am not married. My marriage ended peacefully," he stated clearly. He went on to emphasise the current state of his co-parenting relationship, adding, "The mum and I are good. My daughter is okay, and she is doing fine." This statement, made on December 3, 2025, serves as his first direct public address on the matter, effectively debunking claims of a secret 2023 wedding and subsequent marital strife.
A Timeline of Rumours and Denials
The speculation around Sabinus and Ciana Chapman's relationship has been a recurring topic online. Rumours initially claimed the pair had a private marriage ceremony in 2023. By 2024, the narrative shifted dramatically, with unverified reports alleging the marriage was collapsing. These reports included serious accusations against Sabinus, such as domestic violence, infidelity, and being an absentee father.
Further gossip suggested that after Ciana moved to the UK, she faced financial neglect and that Sabinus would stay in hotels during visits rather than with his family. The couple allegedly unfollowed each other on Instagram, and there were whispers of legal action. However, both Sabinus and Ciana Chapman had previously debunked these reports before this latest live stream confirmation.
Netizens React to Sabinus's Revelation
The comedian's straightforward admission has sparked a wave of mixed reactions across social media platforms. Many users expressed their thoughts on the nature of modern relationships and celebrity culture.
Some notable reactions compiled include:

Other users, like OCollins11824, noted Carter Efe's silent reaction during the stream, while hintrovertt quipped, "Nobody dey gree marry again," highlighting a broader commentary on marriage trends.
This incident is not the first time Sabinus has had to confront false narratives online. Legit.ng previously reported that the comedian shared a private chat with a blogger who posted fake news about him, where the blogger confessed his admiration for Sabinus as a reason for the fabricated story. Sabinus has consistently expressed displeasure at how far some bloggers go to tarnish celebrities' images without evidence.
