Popular Nollywood actress and filmmaker, Toyin Abraham has extended an olive branch to her colleague, Mercy Aigbe.
Toyin Abraham took to her page to pen down a heartfelt writeup to her colleague Mercy Aigbe a few hours after squashing beef with filmmaker, Funke Akindele.
Despite the intense competition among Nollywood actresses, Toyin Abraham said she thought it was time for them to support one another instead of putting one another down.
Following her advice, Toyin Abraham praised Mercy Aigbe for her diligence.
She wrote;
“Today, I want to celebrate two people in Nollywood. Events in time past try to make us competitors and we all know how fierce competition can be in the industry.
The competition often lead to people in the industry taking sides thereby creating an ecosystem of competitors and tear-him or her Down syndrome.
Please it is time we celebrate ourselves more rather than compete with ourselves. We need to create an ecosystem of more successful people so we can all have more capability to create more successful people.
@realmercyaigbe,I celebrate the woman that you are becoming. You came to the boxoffice in December as a first-timer, and you proved your mettle. You gave it your all. You have contributed to the story of strong women in Nollywood. You made many women proud.
Thank you for writing a better story for womanhood when the world is busy writing a different narrative about women. You are a bonafide star. If you come to the cinema in December, I owe you one post (Lol, you know I need to sell market o).
Thank you for not making the competition in December negative. May God bless you more. BTW, you are doing a wonderful job on Michelle and Juwon. May God keep you and your family.
With Love T!”
