Tonto Dikeh gives Bobrisky ₦2m for birthday, marks end of years-long feud

This week, Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh presented Bobrisky with a two-million-naira cash transfer alongside an extended Instagram tribute, signaling the two personalities have fully reconciled after their years of estrangement. Describing Bobrisky—known by his birth name Idris Okuneye—as her anchor and brother, Dikeh praised him as among the most reliable figures she knows.

She shared a defining instance: when she mentioned conflict lay ahead, Bobrisky posed an immediate question about how far she intended to push forward, which she framed as demonstrating an irreplaceable loyalty. Public distance between these two had characterized their dynamic from 2020 onward, yet their recent exchanges point toward genuine healing.

On his Instagram profile, Bobrisky reciprocated by sharing playful interactions with Dikeh. He recounted sending her provocative pictures for potential birthday posts, receiving a humorous dismissal that amused him greatly.

He subsequently used the platform to express his steadfast commitment to her publicly. The present gesture and accompanying tribute have triggered varied responses online, with commentators drawing attention to what they view as tension: Dikeh recently founded a church ministry dubbed New Wine Prophetic Tabernacle while maintaining visible closeness to a transgender personality.

Observers have questioned funding mechanisms for this spiritual venture, though available information does not reveal whether Dikeh has responded to such concerns. Dikeh's tribute incorporated male pronouns throughout her references to Bobrisky, generating separate discussion centered on how gender identity gets framed in public messaging.

When Bobrisky addressed the tribute publicly, he emphasized gratitude for the warmth conveyed rather than commenting on pronoun selection. Dikeh characterized the ₦2 million payment as 'breakfast money' intended for the birthday honoree.
