A heated social media exchange has erupted between Nollywood stars Opeyemi Aiyeola and Eniola Badmus, with Opeyemi accusing Eniola of making a “body-shaming” comment on one of her recent posts.
How It Started
The situation started when Opeyemi shared a video with her fans online, showcasing her new look. However, her receding hairline drew public attention, and Eniola’s comment, “Ope where is your front hair???” sparked a backlash.
Opeyemi’s Strong Response
Opeyemi responded publicly in a strongly worded video, criticizing Eniola for her remark. She accused Eniola of engaging in “body-shaming” and expressed disappointment that it came from someone who had personally experienced similar online ridicule in the past.
A History of Negativity
Opeyemi pointed out that Eniola had never previously interacted with her content or supported her work, but only spoke up when there was something negative to say. “You used to be an image of ridicule and body shaming on social media, to now think that you who has experienced the hurt and pain of body shaming, could come under my video,” she added.
The actress concluded with a stinging critique of Eniola’s behavior, questioning her judgment and the sincerity of her beauty standards. “You see yourself in the mirror and what you see is beauty? You think a person’s physical appearance is all beauty is about? You are ignorant… I pity the people who have you around as their friend.”
The Fallout
The incident has since stirred discussions online, with fans and followers divided over who was in the wrong. As of now, Eniola Badmus has yet to respond publicly to Opeyemi’s video.
