Nollywood actor cum producer, Olaide Olabanji, has accused his colleague, Mercy Aigbe, of repaying him with wickedness after the role he played in her journey to stardom.
Naija News reports that, in a recent interview with media personality Oyinmomo on YouTube, Olabanji claimed to have single-handedly introduced Mercy Aigbe to Nollywood.
The filmmaker explained that Mercy Aigbe’s behaviour towards him changed drastically after her success, stressing that she even went so far as to block him on social media.
Olaide Olabanji further alleged that the movie star resents him so much that she wishes him dead.
He said, “I brought Mercy Aigbe into the movie industry, she repaid me with wickedness. I saw her in a shop in 2004 and asked her if she could act. She said yes, and I put her on. But now she is blocking me. To her, it is as if I should no longer exist. Mercy Aigbe wishes I were dead. I used to thank God because I realised that once some women rise to prominence, they begin to act differently. I observed her closely and noticed that whenever she sees my picture, she always appears unhappy.”
At the time of filing this report, Mercy Aigbe has yet to react to Olabanji’s allegations.
