Tonto Dikeh celebrates Bobrisky as birthday tribute sparks online reactions

Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh honored controversial socialite Bobrisky on his birthday with a heartfelt tribute and N2 million cash gift. The actress described Bobrisky as her "brother," "anchor," and one of the most dependable people in her life. She presented him with a N2 million cheque, which she referred to as "breakfast money" for the birthday celebrant.

In her lengthy Instagram message, Dikeh recalled how Bobrisky stood by her during a difficult period. When she told Bobrisky that it was "time for war," he didn't hesitate or ask questions, responding with "How far are we going to fight?" The actress praised his loyalty and willingness to stand by a friend without hesitation, calling such qualities rare and irreplaceable.

However, Dikeh's use of male pronouns and terms such as "man" and "brother" in the tribute has sparked mixed reactions online. Some social media users appreciated her loyalty to their friendship, while others criticized her decision to describe Bobrisky in male terms. In response to the tribute, Bobrisky simply thanked Dikea for her message.
