Popular Nigerian media entrepreneur and host Chude Jideonwo has set social media buzzing with raw honesty after revealing he wrote his will at age 30 and intentionally decided against having biological children!
Speaking during a deeply reflective episode on the Beyond With Ezinne podcast, the #WithChude host explained that intensive journaling in 2015 forced him to confront his ultimate mortality and greatest personal fears.
Chude shared that writing his will early in his 30s allowed him to clearly organize his assets to safeguard his beloved mother and support non-governmental organizations close to his heart.
However, the most profound discovery came when he evaluated marriage and fatherhood, coming to the intentional realization that he didn’t want children—a heavy realization considering he is the only child of a mother he adores immensely.
The candid revelation has stirred widespread acclaim and intellectual debate across X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, with many praising the media mogul for displaying top-tier mental clarity, emotional maturity, and breaking societal taboos surrounding family pressure.
