Actress Laide Bakare warns critics who talk ill about her source of wealth
Popular Nollywood actress, Laide Bakare, has reacted angrily to rumors about her source of income circulating on the internet.
Since purchasing her new home in March and spending millions on two expensive cars, the actress has made headlines and raised eyebrows.
Laide has angrily cautioned her colleagues to refrain from commenting on such unpleasant rumors in the aftermath of her self-proclaimed Billion Naira net worth and news of her frolicking around.
This comes after Laide attacked her colleague Tonto Dikeh, referring to her as an Oloriburuku, which means “dumb or insane,” for reacting to Gistlover’s article about how she made her money.
It all started on Monday when Laide Bakare revealed that she will be releasing a book to explain how she became self-made via hard work rather than sleeping about, as it was widely speculated.
However, Instagram blogger Gistlover, reacting to this promised to reveal dirty truths about her source of income and the various men with whom she is romantically connected.

“For those women who are waiting for your oloriburuku (stupid) book wey you wan launch so you won’t mislead them….. Laide has one of the dirtiest stories in Nollywood, her story is so dirty that all these upcoming olosho dey learn work.
“As it is now, you have implicated all your other colleagues ooo…some of these celebrities were the definition of oloshos back then, but because of social media today, they have changed a little..I will reopen everybody’s matter now.
“Is it that of Jaiye kuti or mercy Johnson, oshodi oke, Remi surutu, ini edo, Bukola Aruga, Clara chukura, Tonto Dike, Iyabo ojo, mercy Aigbe , Funke Akindele, Toyin Abraham,Sola Sobowale, the list is Endless oooo, but some of them have cooled down now, as they are aging and social media is everywhere.
If I post all the dirts I have on them, some of you their fans will not appreciate them again..but not yet, because they are old gists…..but in Laide Bakare’s case, I will spill it all, let me get to work and be back”
Interestingly, Tonto Dikeh sarcastically commented under the post saying “Jesu’’ Why this person Dey make you remember me Nah!!! Abeg Oba small Girl… E no go better for these people wey make you remember me!! Chia see me see trouble”
An in anger, Laide Bakare responded to Tonto Dikeh’s post by calling her, an ‘Oloribuku’ ( Dumb & Insane) person.
Also, responding to her picture posted by @mayowabae on Instagram, Laide promised to go to war with anyone who supports the blog.
“Thanks much dear @mayowabae pls NOTE: This is a public announcement. This is a clear warning to anyone from my industry who has gone publicly online to comment trash about me on those gossip blogs and others. If you ever see me anyway, please keep your distance or else, you go collect”.
