Eniola Ajao Breaks Silence on Rumoured Rift With Odunlade Adekola’s Wife
The burial of Nollywood star Odunlade Adekola’s father recently stirred online controversy after a video surfaced showing actress Eniola Ajao in what appeared to be an uneasy exchange with Adekola’s wife. The short clip quickly went viral, sparking gossip about the nature of Ajao’s relationship with the popular actor.
Addressing the matter for the first time, Eniola Ajao took to her Instagram stories on August 26 to clear the air. She expressed her frustration over constant rumours linking her to Adekola and explained why she has chosen not to fight every false report.
“Life hits differently when you stop trying to prove you didn’t say that, do that, or you’re not like that. You can’t fix every lie and every rumour, nor can you defend yourself every time something is said about you. Just be great,” she wrote.
The actress further stated that while her image may be targeted, her good deeds and reputation among those who truly know her cannot be erased.
Ajao also shared a supportive message from a fan who argued that it was unnecessary for her to distance herself from Adekola simply because of public speculation. The fan noted that men and women can share genuine friendships without any hidden agenda.
Her reaction has drawn a wave of comments across social media, with many praising her decision to rise above the controversy rather than fuel it.
For now, Ajao appears determined to maintain her focus on her career and personal growth while leaving the rumours behind.
