Following the Meghan Markle and Prince Harry family drama, a lot of celebrities gave their 1 kobo on the issue.
Most praised Prince Harry for siding with his wife and protecting her from the British Royal Family. Some even asked why Peter Okoye of the defunct PSquare wasn’t celebrated for standing with his wife against his family the same way Prince Harry is been praised.
Most notable among the comments is the one of former Big Brother Africa winner, Uti Nwachukwu, who criticized Prince Harry for picking his wife over his family.

Via Twitter, Uti held that family should come first irrespective of the love for one's spouse. He added that even if the first documented Nigerian cannibal, Clifford Orji, is a member of his family, he would join no one in bringing his family down.
FAMILY FIRST! ALWAYS!

U SEE THIS LOVE THING, IF IT MAKES YOU TURN YOUR BACK ON YOUR FAMILY, THEN HMMMM WATCH OUT!!
EVEN IF CLIFFORD ORJI WAS PART OF MY FAMILY, I WOULD NEEEVERR!! JOIN ANYONE (ESP A ROMANTIC PARTNER) TO BRING DOWN AND CONDEMN MY FAMILY..NEVER! #LOYALTYISKEY
Lol the funny thing about most of these Africans applauding Megan & Harry is that if it happened to them and their son or brother left with his wife AND turned his back on and publicly exposed/shamed their family, THEY WOULD BE QUICK TO CALL THE WIFE A WITCH!/HOME WRECKER!..SMH

His comment, especially, making reference to Clifford Orji, did not go down well with Twitter users as they felt protecting a serial killer and kidnapper does not fit into the Meghan and Harry case.

That's what's is happening to Uti Nwachukwu concerning Clifford Orji
Man really said he would side a Clifford Orji - murderer, cannibal and ‘ritualist’ - over his wife, if the Clifford Orji was his brother.

Omoooo x 1732.
How can you'll support Clifford Orji if he was ur family member? A man who was a known ritualistic, cannibal & kidnapper because you ant to prove to us that Prince Harry fucked up? Na he didn't, he stood by his wife & that's what real men do.

Please avoid me!!!
This Uti Nwachukwu's talk ehn, man need to understand that the woman who he loves is now a next to him at what matters before his family. If he has some untrust issue with his woman doesn't make it appropriate for him to pick Clifford Orji ahead of his love.

Upon the backlash he received, Uti stood by his statement as he stated that even if there is a family problem, it would be settled off camera.
Now that most have watched- I Stan, Restan and OverStan my statement!
— Uti Nwachukwu (@SirUTI) March 9, 2021
I would Never join Anyone(esp a romantic partner) in bringing down and condemning my family 'PUBLICLY!'
We're not market hoodlums! We dnt bring family issues to the square! We settle them away frm the cameras https://t.co/YSnbrT8ZwE
According to Wikipedia, Clifford Orji was the first documented Nigerian cannibal who was also indicted in serial killings, kidnappings, and the sale of human body parts and was arrested in 1999. Orji died on August 12, 2012, in Nigeria's only super-maximum penitentiary where he spent 13 years.
