Reality TV personality Ka3na has urged Nigerian celebrities—particularly women—to stop misleading the public with fake pregnancies and instead speak honestly about their motherhood experiences, including the use of surrogacy.
In a message posted to Instagram, the mother of one encouraged public figures to be transparent with their followers, saying their influence should be used to spread truth, not curated images.
“Dear Nigerian Public Figures (especially women), we are privileged to be more informed, more exposed, and better travelled. With that comes the responsibility to be honest with our followers,” she wrote.

Ka3na took aim at what she described as a growing trend of faking pregnancies with prosthetic bumps, rather than embracing surrogacy—a route she considers powerful and entirely legitimate.
“There is absolutely nothing wrong with having a baby through a surrogate. The child is 100% yours. So why deceive your fans by pretending to be pregnant?” she questioned.
Drawing from personal experience, she revealed that her first pregnancy was traumatic, and the thought of going through it again terrifies her. Because of that, she said she would choose surrogacy for any future child.
“Take me for example: I had a traumatic pregnancy that left me with a deep fear of going through it again. If I ever choose to have another child, I hope to go through surrogacy. And there’s nothing shameful about that,” she stated.
She called on fellow celebrities to stop crafting deceptive narratives and instead use their platforms to inspire healing and authenticity among women facing fertility challenges.
“We have platforms. We have influence. Let’s use them to share truth that helps, not just images that perform. And for the record, many of us mothers can see through the act. You’re not pregnant, and that’s okay. But the lie? It’s unnecessary,” she concluded.
