Eko Star Film Award snub: ‘Stop being bitter, be better’- Media personality, Shade Ladipo tells Ruth Kadiri

After actress Ruth Kadiri called out Mo Abudu and the organizers of the Eko Star Film and TV award for ”overlooking” her during the award ceremony, Media personality, Shade Ladipo, has reacted.

Shade advised Ruth to strive to be better in other to be recognized next time rather than being “bitter”.

As part of the Eko Tourism, Art & Culture Series 2021, the Nigerian International Film Summit, in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture & Tourism and EbonyLife Place owned by media mogul Mo Abudu, organized the Eko Star Film & TV Awards, honouring talented female pioneers who call the shots in the growing Nigerian film industry.

At the ceremony which held on April 12 in Victoria Island, Lagos, a number of female celebrities won awards, including Nancy Isime, Kate Henshaw, Toyin Abraham, Osas Ighodaro, Omoni Oboli, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde and more.
