In what many have described as a public embarrassment unbecoming of her status as a political appointee, Laide Bakare, a Nollywood actress and serving as Senior Special Assistant on Entertainment, Art, Culture, and Tourism to Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, was seen engaging in a heated exchange with fellow actress Eniola Badmus, at a public event in Lagos.

The incident occurred on Sunday at the premiere of Eniola Ajao’s much-anticipated movie, Owanbe Thieves, held at Filmhouse Circle Mall, Jakande.

The high-profile event drew crème de la crème of the Nigerian entertainment industry, but it was marred by the open 42 Iconic Bob Dylan Photos – Celebrating Bob Dylan's Nobel Prize in Literature altercation between the two actresses.

In video clips now circulating on social media, Laide Bakare was captured trading words with Eniola Badmus on the dance floor, shortly after Fuji icon, K1 De Ultimate, had electrified the audience with a live performance.

Badmus, who seemed visibly irritated upon sighting Bakare, was seen leaving the dance area abruptly.

The exchange soon escalated when Badmus, in Yoruba, confronted Bakare saying, “Don’t film us together, we’re not friends.”

An unbothered Bakare clapped back with equal measure, leaving onlookers stunned air jordan 3 black cement 2024.

Observers say the bad blood between the duo stems from a previous misunderstanding, where Badmus alleged that Bakare had mocked her personal struggles, including her lack of a spouse or children.

Though Bakare later claimed the comments were taken out of context, the rift appears unresolved.

Social media users have since weighed in on the incident, with some accusing both parties of turning a glamorous movie premiere into a battleground of egos.

While others joked about the matter, many expressed disappointment over the public conduct of Laide Bakare, particularly in her current capacity as a government representative.
