The scandal involving Kannywood actress Hadiza Gabon and businessman Saleem Iliyasu Goje erupted on social media on June 12, 2026. Goje's second wife, Hafsat Kamal, is alleged to have accessed his phone and shared screenshots of explicit and flirtatious conversations.
Saleem Goje, a 30-year-old Taraba State native and CEO of Dan Mama Smart Homes Ltd, rose from humble beginnings selling sugarcane. He maintains a public polygamous marriage with first wife Shafa Ardo and second wife Hafsat Kamal.
Hafsat Kamal reportedly posted the alleged chats on her Instagram, tagging several women including Hadiza Gabon. The messages allegedly include sexual language, references to video calls, and travel plans during Ramadan.
Hadiza Gabon, known as a prominent actress, filmmaker, and host of Gabon's Room, has not issued any public statement. Screenshots circulating online have drawn widespread attention across platforms.
Other women named in the leaks include married individuals such as Khadija Darma and Ummi Jeje. The revelations have fueled accusations of infidelity against Goje, who previously portrayed a harmonious family life online.
Shafa Ardo, Goje's first wife, responded calmly on social media. She criticized Hafsat's actions and hinted at possible personal issues, including depression or past matters affecting her.
Hafsat Kamal reportedly went live on Instagram expressing fear for her safety. She claimed people surrounded her home at night and sought police assistance, allegedly implicating her husband in the threat.
Public reactions on X have been intense. Many users expressed shock at Hadiza Gabon's alleged involvement. One post noted her "steez has dropped from 100% to 0% after the leaked evidence."
Critics highlighted misplaced priorities. Several posts lamented the scandal trending above serious issues like the kidnapping of over 40 children in Borno State in mid-May. "Arewa is far long dead," one user remarked.
As of June 13, 2026, no official statements have come from Saleem Goje or Hadiza Gabon. The screenshots remain unverified by independent sources, and reports suggest divorce proceedings may be underway.
The incident has ignited heated debates on family privacy, polygamy, and social media responsibility in northern Nigeria. Observers await further developments as the story continues to unfold.
