A viral video circulating across Nigerian social media platforms has captured the dramatic moment a father arrived at a fitness centre with police officers to confront a gym instructor he accused of impregnating his daughter.
The footage shows the visibly enraged father leading law enforcement directly to the suspect during a busy workout session, while other gym members looked on in shock. Some bystanders attempted to de-escalate while others recorded the tense scene.
During the confrontation, the instructor reportedly admitted to impregnating the young woman but insisted they were in a consensual boyfriend-girlfriend relationship and that he had done nothing wrong.
The explanation further angered the father, who at one point slapped the instructor, questioning whether the daughter appeared underage: “Doesn’t she look underage to you? Are you mad?”
Police officers eventually placed the instructor into a vehicle while he continued protesting, accusing the father of oppression.
Legal experts note that under Nigerian law, pregnancy between consenting adults is not a criminal offence, suggesting the dispute is primarily a family matter.
The incident follows recent reports involving fitness professionals, including a gym instructor in Uyo, who allegedly impregnated two married women.
