Captain Ekeinde, the Nigerian singer and son of the famous actress Omotola Jalade, has stepped into the spotlight to address rumors claiming he criticized his mother’s coworker, Destiny Etiko.
As Destiny’s birthday on August 12 approached, gossip spread rapidly online, suggesting that she was gifted a fancy car for her birthday by Captain Matthew Ekeinde, Omotola’s husband and a well-known pilot in Nigeria.
The rumors continued to grow when some blogs claimed that Omotola knew all about the “friendship” between Destiny and her husband. This supposed connection reportedly started years ago when their photos together went viral.
Things got even more complicated when a supposed screenshot spread quickly, showing Captain Ekeinde’s son, Captain, expressing his anger about the rumored relationship between Destiny and his dad.
The screenshot claimed that Captain told Destiny to give back the car he had gifted her, which only fueled the scandal further.

As rumors swirled and threatened to damage reputations, Captain Ekeinde refused to let anyone tarnish his name. On Sunday, August 11, he took to his official X account to send a strong message to the gossipers: ignore the falsehoods.
Captain emphasized that the scandalous claims were purely made-up, created by those who enjoy stirring up trouble.
He confidently asserted that he is the last person to get involved in such drama, humorously stating that he is too easygoing to be entangled in such issues.
Captain wrote:
“Just saw a blog post about me and all l can say is don’t believe everything you read online…As in, someone like me that is unproblematic”
