Veteran Nollywood actress Omotola Jalade Ekeinde has responded to questions about her friendship with fellow actress Genevieve Nnaji.
It is widely believed the movie stars were not on good terms, especially since they are no longer seen together, unlike in their early days in the movie industry.
However, in a recent interview with Pulse Nigeria, the thespian confirmed that their bond remains strong.
She said that fans need not worry about any tensions between them.
The interviewer asked: “Are Omotola and Genevieve still friends?”
“Oh, Jesus Christ. We are good”, she said.
The actress also shared her admiration for Chidi Mokeme, naming him as her favourite Nollywood actor.
Omotola noted that both on and off screen, Mokeme stands out as a talented performer who continues to impress her.
In a previous interview, Omotola dismissed a purported feud with Genevieve.
She clarified that they were never fighting and stressed that it was similar to the speculation people make about Nigerian singers.
While accusing fans of pitching them against each other, Omotola said, “Na them start the quarrel before we know say we dey quarrel.
“So, we have to catch up with the quarrel. There was no quarrel. People don’t need to be best friends, but we talked. Like behind film, we dey talk normally.”
