9ice
In November 2020, Nigerian singer, Alexandar Akande, popularly known as 9ice, became a topic of discussion on social media when a video of him fondling a lady that was not his wife surfaced online.
Another picture showing him naked also went viral. Reacting to the viral content, the singer, on November 21, implored fans to beg his wife for his ‘shameful’ act.
He uploaded a video of himself pleading with fans to beg his wife for forgiveness and added the caption, “Save a sinking vessel.”

Singer Oritsefemi Majemite-Ekele, October 2020, was accused of domestic violence against his wife, Nabila, by actress Caroline Danjuma.During that period, Oritsefemi had taken to his Instagram page to plead with his wife to return home, even though he accused Caroline of being the ‘evil’ between him and his wife.
In response, Caroline hinted that there was domestic violence between the couple but the singer, however, denied being a wife-beater.
Patrick Doyle
Nigerian actor Patrick Doyle, in 2019, tendered an open apology and reconciliation to his wife, Iretiola Doyle, after admitting that he “screwed up.”This came at a moment when divorce rumours trailed the marriage. It was buttressed by the fact that they have not been seen together in public for a long time, unlike what was obtained in the past when they attended all events as a couple.
However, in a Facebook post, the husband admitted wrongdoing and promised to be a better husband to the actress.

In the foreign scene, American singer and songwriter Justin Timberlake also made a public apology on Instagram to his wife and family.This happened in December 2019 after photos showed him holding hands with a female co-star at a bar in New Orleans.
