In other news, Mo Abudu has officially addressed the topic of heartbreak, and her answer is as refreshing as it is unexpected.
The Nigerian media mogul recently spoke during a podcast session with media personality Toke Makinwa, where she reflected on heartbreak and advised young women against lowering their standards or trying to convince men to stay in relationships they no longer want.

"Heartbreak. Nobody can break my heart. It's not possible. Heartbreak. There's no such thing as heartbreak at my age. If I cry, it's not because of a man. It may be because of my work. Listen, you cannot make a man be in a relationship with you. If he wants to be in it, he will be in it. If he doesn't want to be in it, he's kidding you. Leave him. Move on. He doesn't want to be there."
She said.
"You have to get over it, because you need to read the writing, guys. It is easy. Because don't downgrade yourself in front of anybody. And to young girls, don't downgrade yourself. He will sleep with you. He will deceive you. He will lie to you, and you're still there. Doing what? Pressure of what? Or be with a man, a man that doesn't want you?"
She added.
"You know in your gut that he's messing around. True. Because he hasn't called you for two weeks. He's ghosting you. He's telling you he's busy doing what? Chasing somebody else. You see those kinds of people, leave them alone. Those types of people do not want you. Please, ladies. Anybody can have you. But what does it take?"

Mo Abudu has reportedly started a support group for women who cannot leave men who are ghosting them. Sources say the group is called "Leave Him Alone" and already has over 100 members. She has been hosting weekly sessions at her office in Ikoyi, and the first meeting was reportedly attended by 30 women. She has not announced it publicly yet, but her friends say she is "testing the waters" to see if there is an audience for a support group.
