90 Day Fiancé: Womanizer Usman Left Nigeria (Did This 'Yahoo Boy' Flee America? Find Out What's Going On)

90 Day Fiancé star Usman Umar’s adventures in a brand-new country made him grab all the headlines this week. Usman is a 34-year-old singer and actor from Nigeria who was a part of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 4 in 2019. Usman had befriended a woman named Lisa Hamme, whom he referred to as “Babygirl Lisa,” who flew to meet him and marry him with a camera crew in tow. Lisa was nowhere to be seen in the franchise after the reunion episode. Usman shared that his wife had called him the N-word when the Tell All was taped.

Lisa was fired from the show and Usman came back for more with a new girlfriend who was his biggest fan. Kim Menzies tried hard to make Usman her boyfriend. She spent lavishly on him, buying Usman a MacBook and a PlayStation. Usman hesitated but Kim was going to take him one more step towards his goal – America. Usman and Kim got engaged, but Kim called off the wedding when she realized Usman was not appreciative of the efforts she was putting into the relationship. Usman was also shamelessly ready to have a second wife just so he could have a kid.

Usman's A Bit Too Proud Of Being A "Yahoo Boy"

When Lisa started dating Usman, she tested him to make sure he wasn’t a "Yahoo Boy." His age, 29, when she was 49, was a huge red flag that had led Lisa to think that Usman was yet another "Yahoo Boy" from Nigeria who was going to harass her. At first, Lisa never expected to form a relationship with Usman, although she did give him the benefit of the doubt. Lisa eventually authenticated Usman’s identity by asking him to send a picture of him. Lisa believed that "Yahoo Boys" never talk to their victims on video calls.

It didn’t take long for Lisa to start claiming she was the victim of a romance scam. She claimed Usman had used the show to become a famous singer, but she had already married him by then. Lisa declared that Usman had never been a celebrity in Nigeria. Usman denied all claims where Lisa accused him of being a scammer. He joked that if he was really a fraud, he could have gone for somebody rich and not Lisa. The couple, who married in August 2019, had split before their first anniversary.

However, Usman used the “Yahoo Boy” tag to his advantage. He didn’t feel ashamed of calling himself a “Yahoo Boy,” which is a term used to describe a Nigerian man who carries out an internet scam, especially in foreign countries, and launched a show called “Yahoo Boy” in January 2023. Fans like ShelterConscious4124 had a good laugh over Usman’s web series, but the genius that Usman is got people talking about his show without having spent a dime on marketing.

Why Did Usman Leave Nigeria?

Usman may not have been the superstar he claimed he was when he started the show, but his popularity has grown tenfold since he romanced Lisa and then Kim on reality TV. Usman accepts that he owes his fame to 90 Day Fiancé, and it’s the reason why he can say he is truly an “international” artist. In November 2024, Usman posted a video where a fan named “Lisa” approached Usman in London and couldn’t believe that she was meeting Sojaboy.

“Yesterday i was doing my things in the city of London and a fan just show up and her name was Lisa,” Usman wrote in his caption.

Usman did not mention what kind of “things” he was up to in the UK. Being an international superstar is hard work and Usman seems to be working on a secret project that he’s kept a secret from his fans for now. Usman has not moved to England just yet. Usman's recent Instagram post shows him flying first class to Nigeria, suggesting his trip has come to an end. Usman’s supporters in his comments were excited about his return to his motherland. It would be interesting to know how they’d react if he shifted base to the U.S.

Usman Seems Like A User

Usman dated two 50-year-old women back-to-back on 90 Day Fiancé. He also romanced a woman named Zara, who’d made a surprise appearance, much to the annoyance of Kim. He recently dated another American woman, Kiera Ogden. It appears Usman does have a type and that type is “American.” Usman’s dedication to finding American women who would date him despite his reputation in the franchise, is commendable. Usman is a charmer, and he is a user who won’t take long to find a gullible woman who’d make it easier for him to get a K-1 visa and relocate.
