People need to mind their business - Single mum speaks
A Nigerian single mum, Pelumi Mary, spoke with Legit.ng as she reacted to questions about Vanessa Okoye's newborn child's name. According to her, people need to focus on their lives instead of worrying about the names a mother gave her child. In her words:
"This is big 2024, people need to mind the business that pays them. The world has evolved and people should not be surprised that a mother gives her child her own surname instead of the father's own. It is obvious the man is not a part of the mother's life and it's better to avoid drama from the start than to name a child after a man who might not want to be involved."
