Eniola Badmus, a popular Nollywood actress, has recently faced criticism from netizens for her response to a comment made by her senior colleague, Faithia Williams, on her Instagram page. This came after Badmus shared pictures of herself and her new Yoruba name, “Ebudola,” which means “insult turned to blessing,” following her appointment with the president-elect of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu. In response to the pictures, Williams commented with a simple “hmmmmn,” which Badmus seemingly took as a shade.
The actress then indirectly responded to Williams in her Instagram story, telling her haters to stop pretending to be happy for her while secretly harboring negative feelings. This response from Badmus has led to backlash from fans and followers of Williams, who believe that the comment was harmless and did not warrant a negative response.
The incident highlights the growing trend of online drama and tension between celebrities in the Nigerian entertainment industry. As public figures, it is important for them to handle criticisms and differences with maturity and professionalism, rather than resorting to social media drama.
