Nollywood actors have reacted to a video of Wumi Toriola firing Desola Afod, actor Kunle Afod’s ex-wife. Wumi Toriola took to her verified social media page to call out Desola Afod over her controversial statement that those in ‘theatre’ disrespect her. Desola had previously warned younger Nollywood practitioners who constantly disrespect her to watch out because she is not their mate.
In what was viewed as disrespect to the entire Yoruba movie industry, the mother of one told Kunle’s ex-wife to name those who disrespected her rather than disrespecting the industry. She urged her to start bearing her father’s name if her ex’s name is giving her problem. Reacting to the development, Nollywood actors such as Arike Akinyanju, Nkechi Blessing, Yetunde Bakare, Seyi Edun, Yetunde Barnabas, and Tosin Olaniyan took to Wumi Toriola’s comment section to validate her point.
Tosin Olaniyan boldly told Desola Afod to mention names because using collective terms is affecting relationships in the movie industry. “That generic lebel is beginning to be annoying right, mention names e dakun, awon omo o ni theater is starting to affect us in our relationships too, e jor , e ja ka ri ibujoko ka to pe 40 na beg I personally dey beg . It’s is high we stand up with these people, I have a brand that is in our heads is m m believe they can bully us,” Tosin Olaniyan blows hot Tosin Jegede wrote, “Were kuku break table!!!! @wumitoriola meanwhile while so fine for this video.”
“That packaging don tire me sef … I no wan package again, make we all enter worosi woro,” Yetunde Bakare wrote Nkechi Blessing commented, “Shey this English no too much for her like this?” View this post on Instagram A post shared by QUEEN LATEEFAH (@wumitoriola)
