Emjoy.

8. Babatunde Bernard: The Yoruba actor had a very bizarre break up story with his wife. The split was so ugly in the public. The story is surely one of the ugliest celeb stories of 2015. It lasted for a few months but it was strong enough to make Baba T a controversial celeb in 2015.

7. Maheeda: How Maheeda keeps on getting attention for her nude pictures we don't know, but one thing is certain she was extremely controversial in the year. She continued releasing nude pictures and exposing her nipples from January to December. Surprisingly her Instagram account wasn't deleted in 2015.

6. Toke Makinwa: The media personality's wasn't exactly controversial but the story of her husband's alleged infidelity was a controversy that ran through the whole year. Because of that sole reason Toke Makinwa was a hot controversial figure for 2015.

5. Etcetera: The singer turned critic annoyed a whole lot of people with his acidic articles that took shots at several celebrities including Asa and M.I. It feels that Etcetera's aim is to ruffle feathers rather an educate people. He achieved his goal of pissing a lot of people off in 2015, and he was indeed controversial for his words.

4. Burna Boy: The bad boy of Nigerian pop music continued his controversial lifestyle in the year. He promised to beat up any blogger who wrote anything negative about him, and brandished guns on Instagram. He also flaunted 'weed' on his SnapChat and got into an altercation with a driver on Lekki Road. Oh yeah he had a scuffle with Buffalo Souljah also.

3. Toyin Aimakhu: The Yoruba actress' personal life was a mess with the ugly and public split from her husband Adeniyi Johnson to her rumoured hook up with Ebony Films boss Seun Egbegbe. If she wasn't dealing with her love life she was busy lashing out at fans on Instagram. The drama never stopped with the actress in 2015.

2. Denrele Edun: If we call him Mr. Controversy we won't be wrong. Denrele's 'sexual outlaw' antics throughout 2015 landed him in one controversy or the other. His look got more feminine by the day and his 'Caitlyn Jenner' moment took things way overboard.

1. Freeze: The veteran Cool FM on-air-personality is the most controversial celebrity in Nigeria of 2015. From dissing comedians Basketmouth, and Bovi to blasting his ex-wife, calling her an adulterer, and saying she physically assaulted him, Freeze ate up all the headlines for controversy. Let's not forget he dissed online shops who sold fake watches and Nigerians who bought fake goods. See also the top 5 biggest celebrity goofs of 2015.
