The singer made this known in a video shared on his Instagram page, where he spoke about his commitment to celibacy and his efforts to remain focused.

In the video, Lil Kesh specifically addressed women who regularly visit the gym, drawing attention to their body shapes and physical features, which he admitted he finds tempting.

He appealed to such women to tone down their seductive appearances and movements around him, explaining that he was determined to maintain his celibate lifestyle.

The rapper also disclosed that he had abstained from sex for seven years.

He said, “Hello, if you know you are a gym girly and your back is looking like this, please, I’m gonna need you to tone it down. I have been celibate for 7 years; I am trying to focus; don’t konjibait me.”

In a related development, Nigerian content creator Adebayo Ridwan, popularly known as Isbae U, has opened up about the difficult period he experienced following the controversy surrounding him in 2022.

During an interview with Morayo Afolabi Brown, Isbae U revealed that the backlash was so severe that he began questioning whether his career had come to an end.

He explained that the situation became particularly difficult because people who had previously supported and praised his work began making negative comments about him.

The skit maker also disclosed that he sought advice from fellow content creator Mr Macaroni during the period.

According to him, he asked whether the controversy marked the end of his career, as he was uncertain about what the future held following the backlash.

Isbae U recalled that the experience taught him how quickly public perception can change when someone becomes embroiled in controversy.

The ceremony is scheduled to commence at 7 p.m. Nigerian time, 8 p.m. in Cairo and 6 p.m. GMT, at the Professor Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and the Arts, popularly known as the National Theatre.

The event will mark the return of the CAF Awards to Nigeria’s commercial capital for the first time in 12 years. Lagos last hosted the ceremony in 2014.

CAF disclosed that this year’s edition would blend football with Nigerian culture, with music and entertainment forming key parts of the celebrations.

A total of 18 award categories will be presented at the ceremony, with the CAF Men’s Player of the Year and Women’s Player of the Year awards expected to be among the major highlights.

Other categories will honour outstanding achievements by coaches, goalkeepers, young players, clubs and national teams.

Voting for the awards commenced on November 5 and is expected to close on November 20, covering both the men’s and women’s categories.

CAF Member Associations, clubs, eligible coaches and national team captains are taking part in the voting process to determine the eventual winners.

The continental football governing body said the voting arrangement was designed to ensure broad representation across African football while upholding fairness and transparency.

It added that independent monitoring would be carried out throughout the process to safeguard the credibility of the results.
