Singer and activist Charly Boy has posted on X that he is looking for a wife for his 46-year-old son, who is due to return to Nigeria next month. In the post, Charly Boy described his son as a master’s degree holder, 5 ft 11 in tall, and “very humble,” and said the son had previously been married and divorced.
Charly Boy specified the social background and educational requirements he is seeking in a prospective partner. “If you’re from a good home with humble beginnings, DM me,” he wrote on the platform, adding a direct instruction about academic credentials.
“If you’re not an authentic graduate, don’t bother. I need to tie him to Nigeria.”
In the same post, Charly Boy also conveyed concerns about his son’s caution toward relationships since the divorce.
“My people, I still dey look for wife for dis my son. E don marry once, divorce. Now, e be like say e dey fear woman. Biko, if you’re from a good home with humble beginnings, DM me.”
The post does not identify the son by name. Charly Boy’s message places particular emphasis on formal education and a modest family background as criteria for prospective partners, and it signals an intention to use social media as a channel for introductions ahead of the son’s return to the country.
