Renowned Nigerian singer, Iyanya Onoyom Mbuk, has made a controversial claim that women cheat more than men in relationships. The 35-year-old musician, known for hits such as “Kukere” and “Your Waist,” made the statement during an appearance on the Doyin’s Corner podcast hosted by reality star Doyinsola Anuoluwapo David.
During the podcast, Iyanya was asked by the host, Doyin, who cheats more in relationships, men or women. Without hesitation, Iyanya responded, “Women! It’s old gist. There is a popular song by an American rapper, I’m sure you know that song: ‘Girls cheat too. Girls bad too.’ Something like that. It has millions of views and that’s proof that women cheat more.”
The singer went on to share personal anecdotes, claiming that the majority of his male friends are single because they were hurt by their girlfriends who cheated on them. According to Iyanya, his friends were “hurt terribly” by the infidelity of their former partners, leading them to remain single and unwilling to date again.

“I’m speaking for myself and also holding it down for my guys, my single friends. 99 per cent of them are single. The reason why they are single and not even ready to date is because one or two girls they loved and focused on hurt them terribly,” Iyanya revealed.
When asked if he himself would ever cheat on a partner, the singer adamantly stated that he is “focused” when in love and therefore incapable of betraying his partner’s trust. He also expressed his reluctance to forgive a cheating partner, emphasizing the importance of loyalty and honesty in a relationship.
Iyanya’s bold claims have sparked a heated debate on social media, with many expressing both agreement and disagreement with his views.
