Nollywood actress Laide Bakare has come out to address the social media heat following a video she posted — one that many fans believed was a shade aimed at fellow actress Biola Bayo, who recently announced her separation from her husband, Oluseyi.

In the now-viral clip, Bakare was seen dancing gleefully with a cryptic caption that read:

“All of us will eat breakfast. Asiko lo ma ya to. Good morning people.”

For context, “eating breakfast” is Nigerian slang for experiencing heartbreak or breakup — so fans didn’t take it lightly, especially as the post came barely hours after Biola’s emotional separation announcement.

🔥 Coincidence or Cruelty?

Reacting to the online uproar, Laide Bakare took to Instagram again — this time with firm denial and fiery words for critics.

“Bad commenters and trolls association, something must be wrong with you,” she said in a visibly upset video.

“Please let us all be guided… It is still June 5th here in California to be precise. I can never shade my own sister Biola Bayo. My prayers are with you. I didn’t get any updates. I was busy with my daughter’s graduation. Trolls are evil.”

She made it clear that the post was not directed at anyone, insisting the timing was a pure coincidence.

❤️ Nollywood, But Make It Sisterhood?

In an industry often riddled with drama and silent wars, Bakare’s swift clarification is a reminder that online narratives can quickly spiral, especially when emotions are high. While her video may have been innocent, it struck a sensitive chord — and understandably so.

Biola Bayo’s marriage had been admired by many, making the news of her separation even more disheartening. Fans were quick to defend her, but perhaps also too quick to cast stones at Bakare without context.

💬 Public Reactions: Mixed but Emotional

“Laide should have been more sensitive. Timing is everything.” – @AdaGold
“She explained herself well. Social media judges too fast!” – @KayDeyReal
“We need more love and less assumptions. Biola needs support, not drama.” – @NnennaGist

✨ Opinion: The Real Lesson Here

While trolling is unacceptable, public figures must also understand that intent doesn’t always match perception. In a hyper-connected world, timing + tone = interpretation.

Laide Bakare’s support for Biola Bayo should be appreciated — and fans must balance their emotional response with facts before jumping to conclusions.

Let’s not lose the beauty of Nollywood sisterhood to social media misinterpretation.
