Well-known TikToker and forex trader Ahmed Yusuf, also known as Ahmed XM, has warned his detractors not to harass his new wife Safeerah Abba Mukhtar after he split from his first wife, Safiya Umar. Ahmed married Safiya in 2024, and the couple is gifted with a daughter.
With over two million TikTok followers, the FX trader married Safeerah earlier this year. Safeerah was a former partner with whom he supposedly broke up with in 2023 amid family objections. On social media, the second marriage has subsequently sparked criticism, with many people charging Ahmed of disrespecting Safiya.
Ahmed voiced his displeasure with the amount of false information and online insults in a message posted on his Instagram account on Tuesday. He cautioned that if the cyberbullying persists, legal action may be taken.
The statement read, “Over the past few days, I have watched with deep sadness as my name, my wife’s name, and my family have been dragged through the mud online.
“What started as personal news about my separation from my former wife has now turned into a full-blown campaign of hate, cyberbullying, and misinformation directed not just at me, but especially at my wife, Safeerah Abba Mukhtar.”
“To be clear, Safeerah had absolutely nothing to do with the end of my previous marriage. That chapter ended for reasons known only to the people involved,” he wrote.
“It hurts deeply to see someone I love being falsely accused, insulted, and dehumanized over a situation she did not cause. These past few days have taken an emotional toll on everyone involved.
“My ex-wife, my current wife, and our families. We are all human beings with feelings, not headlines for gossip or hashtags for trend.
