Veteran Nollywood actress, Laide Bakare has finally broken silence on the circulated news and rumours of her fighting her colleague and bestie, Kemi Afolabi over Actor, Gida.
On Instagram, Laide referred to the rumours as silly talks as she stated that giving response to the rumour has become important for her.
According to her, phone calls and dms from friends and close ones made her come in public to say this because she initially only wanted to laugh it off.
The actress made it crystal clear that she’ll never stoop so low to the level of fighting over a man in the Nigerian film industry.
“It has become important for me to respond to some very degrading and silly talks going round the social media about Laide Bakare fighting over some guy.
My initial reaction was to ignore this laughable story. But I have been overwhelmed by calls and DMs, hence I decided to put this out.
Just so we are clear: Laide Bakare WILL NEVER stoop so low to the level of fighting over a man in our industry.
The young colleague being mentioned, I have only met a few times, in the course of work, only at movie locations. Go get your facts rights. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.
For the records, what I did recently was to respond to a female colleague that called me out rudely on social media instead of calling me over the phone personally . This fight over man stories are completely silly!
I’ve been in this industry for too long not to know my onions. Everyone knows I move and relate with everybody like we’ve known forever and that’s the kind of love I carry around, because I don’t discriminate.
You’d never see me claiming seniority in this industry even to those I brought in or trained because I believe God just used me as tool to project their career.
This will be the last I’d say about anything concerning anyone who thinks we are fighting. I am all about love and light and that’s the grace I carry to everyone I meet because we are only opportune to be in the limelight and spread the the good of our career.
To my family, lovers and fans, I thank you all for the messages and calls but I want you all to know that Laide Bakare is all for love and I believe everyone has seen that. I love you all. Entetainment is fun! Entertainment is Life, Entertainment is Life! As an Actor it makes us who we are and pls let treat it as Such , #peacetotheworld.”, she said.
