Nigerian singer Omah Lay has caused a stir online after sharing emotional and slightly cryptic messages on Snapchat. The singer opened up about his feelings regarding relationships, fatherhood, and the changes happening in his life. His posts have now become a trending topic among fans on social media.
In one of the messages, Omah Lay made it clear that he is not ready to become a father at this stage of his life. He wrote that he is “very much not ready to be a baby daddy,” suggesting that even though he may be admired or involved emotionally, he is focused on himself and his peace for now. The statement surprised fans who often see celebrities becoming fathers at a young age in the entertainment industry.
Omah Lay also shared that he feels life keeps moving around him, yet he remains emotionally distant from most experiences. He wrote that “everything happens but nothing ever happens to me,” which many interpreted as a sign that he is trying to understand himself more deeply and process the lifestyle changes that come with fame.
Aside from his thoughts on fatherhood and fame, the singer also touched on his love life. He revealed that he misses a certain Yoruba girl he was previously involved with. He admitted that he has always had a special place in his heart for Yoruba girls, even though relationships sometimes become overwhelming for him.
He explained that romantic connections have recently become “boring” for him, suggesting that he has stepped away from dating for now. Many fans reacted to this part of his message, with some asking who the Yoruba girl might be and whether they may still be in contact.
Fans have been sharing their opinions on social media, with some praising him for being honest about his emotions instead of pretending to be okay. Others interpreted the posts as signs that he may be dealing with emotional stress or burnout, which is common among young artists navigating fame.
Omah Lay is known for expressing his feelings openly in his music and interviews. These Snapchat messages seem to reflect the same vulnerability and self-awareness that fans have come to appreciate in his songs like “Understand” and “Soso.” His messages have once again reminded people that behind fame, there are real emotions and struggles.
For now, fans are keeping a close eye on him, hoping he remains in a good emotional space and continues to create music that connects with many around the world.
