Oba Ebenezer Akintunde Akinyemi, the Eselu of Iselu Kingdom in Ogun State, has called for the arrest of social media influencer Mandy Kiss (Ayomiposi Oluwadahunsi) after she announced plans for a 24-hour “sex marathon” with 100 men in Lagos to break a Guinness World Record.
The 29-year-old’s Instagram post, featuring a flyer with the GWR logo, caused outrage despite GWR rejecting the proposal as unethical and unverifiable.
In an open letter to Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the monarch condemned the stunt as a “disgrace” to Nigerian values, urging Mandy’s detention, a drug test, and psychiatric evaluation. He warned of moral decay and risks to public health, citing potential physical and psychological harm.
Mandy, a controversial figure from Ogun State, defended her plan as a statement on female sexuality, but critics, including health experts, highlight severe health risks.
The announcement has divided social media, with #ArrestMandyKiss and #FreeMandyKiss trending.
Some advocate counseling over criminalization, while others demand stricter social media regulations.
Lagos authorities have yet to respond, and Mandy vows to proceed on September 30 in Ikorodu. The controversy shows the tensions between Nigeria’s digital culture and traditional values, raising questions about free expression and public decency.
