BBNaija’s Leo Dasilva has advised Nigerians to record video wills to protect their assets after death. His opinion has sparked a heated AI debate online.
Former BBNaija star Leo Dasilva has started a serious conversation online after advising people to record video wills. In a viral post shared on June 28, 2026, he said, “Make a video of exactly what you expect after your death so that people don’t confuse your enemies for family because of blood relation.” His statement quickly got Nigerians talking.
Leo explained that being related by blood does not always mean someone truly cares about you. According to him, some relatives may never support you while you are alive. He believes a video will can clearly show your final wishes. That way, there will be less confusion over how your assets should be shared after your death.
However, not everyone agreed with the idea. Many social media users argued that AI and deepfake technology could make video wills easy to fake. They said such recordings might even face legal challenges if family members question their authenticity. As a result, some people believe written and properly witnessed wills remain the safest option.
Meanwhile, others supported Leo’s advice and suggested extra ways to make a video will more believable. Some recommended speaking in a native language or using family proverbs. Others advised mentioning private family details that only close relatives would know.
The debate continues, with many Nigerians sharing different opinions on the best way to protect their final wishes.
