In a surprising twist, Nigerian comedian Akpororo and his wife Josephine have become the talk of social media following recent activities on their Instagram accounts. The couple, known for their vibrant presence online and the lavish wedding they had in 2015, have deleted each other’s pictures from their profiles, raising eyebrows and sparking rumors about their relationship status.
The buzz began on Monday, March 10, 2025, when fans noticed that Akpororo, whose real name is Bowoto Jephthah Oluwatiseyifumi Tanimola, had wiped his Instagram clean of photos featuring Josephine. This move did not go unnoticed as netizens quickly pointed out that Josephine no longer follows Akpororo on the platform. Despite this, Akpororo still follows Josephine’s backup account, @jojoplacehairbackup, adding a layer of complexity to the situation.
Fans have been divided in their reactions, with some expressing concern about a potential split and others speculating that the couple might be taking their relationship off social media for personal reasons. One fan commented, “No matter the kind of brouhaha that is happening in marriages these days, I will marry right and my marriage will last,” while another noted, “Maybe it’s just their self-decision, to take their relationship off social media.”
The situation brings to mind a similar case involving comedian Basketmouth, who announced his separation from his wife in 2022. This comparison has only fueled the speculation surrounding Akpororo and Josephine.
Adding to the intrigue, Legit.ng reports that Akpororo recently received support from gospel singer Ebuka Songs, who gifted him N1 million during a praise concert in Ojo, Lagos. This gesture highlights the comedian’s influence and the strong bonds he shares within the entertainment community.
As fans continue to speculate, the public is eagerly waiting for an official statement from Akpororo or Josephine to clarify the status of their relationship. Until then, social media remains abuzz with theories and reactions.
