Controversial Nigerian social media personality and influencer, Ayomiposi Oluwadahunsi, popularly known as Mandy Kiss, has once again sparked widespread reactions online after releasing an emotional video where she claimed that some individuals were plotting to take her to a psychiatric hospital against her will.
“I Am Not Mad,” Mandy Kiss Begs Nigerians
In the viral video, Mandy Kiss appeared visibly distressed as she tearfully appealed to Nigerians to come to her aid, insisting that she was mentally sound and did not need psychiatric treatment.
Speaking alternately in English and Yoruba, she pleaded:
“Please Nigerians, have mercy on me. I am not mad. I am only looking for a means to earn a living. They want to use a pretext to take me to the psychiatric hospital. I am not mentally ill. Everything I am doing is just content so that I can trend.”
Her emotional outburst has since generated a storm of reactions across social media platforms, with many Nigerians expressing concern about her mental health, while others sympathized with her claims of being misunderstood.
Background: Her Guinness World Record Controversy
This latest drama comes only weeks after Mandy Kiss went viral for announcing what she called a Guinness World Record attempt to sleep with 100 men in one day a claim that was met with outrage and condemnation from the public.
Amid the heavy criticism, she later clarified that the announcement was purely for social media content and part of her strategy to attract attention and engagement online.
“It was just content. I didn’t mean it literally,” she later explained in a follow-up post, insisting that her online persona is often exaggerated for entertainment purposes.
From Online Scandal to Government Endorsement
In a surprising twist, despite her controversial image, Mandy Kiss was recently appointed as an ambassador for the Lagos State Kicks Against Drug Abuse (LASKADA) initiative a move that stirred heated debates on social media.
Many Nigerians questioned the rationale behind selecting her as a face of such a serious campaign, while others defended the choice, arguing that her massive online following could help spread awareness among the youth.
Reactions Trail Her Latest Cry for Help
The influencer’s latest video has reignited conversations about the mental health of Nigerian content creators and the pressures of maintaining relevance online.
While some commenters urged authorities and family members to ensure her safety, others insisted that her emotional plea might be another publicity stunt aimed at keeping her name trending.
“I honestly think Mandy Kiss needs rest, not ridicule,” one X (Twitter) user wrote.
“She’s crying for help in a society that mocks people who show vulnerability,” another added.
As of press time, neither Mandy Kiss nor her management team has issued a formal statement clarifying who was allegedly behind the plan to take her to a psychiatric hospital
