Nollywood actress, Nkechi Blessing, has lashed out at people who criticised her for sharing sex toys as souvenirs at her mother’s momorial on Sunday.
Several Nigerians had slammed NkechiSeptember 26, 2022 Blessing after the video of the controversial actress announcing the gifts and thereafter distributing to ladies at the party surfaced online.
Speaking at the remembrance party, the actress said the gesture was not to say men are scum because she has got a man but to help the single ladies who may not have men in their lives.
However, the actress, via her Instastory on Monday, told her critics to leave her alone.
Nkechi said she took good care of her mother while she was alive, and can celebrate her memorial any how she likes, adding that some of those criticising her on social media do not take care of their parents.
“Even people wey don forget their parents wey never die sef de talk. Everyone around me knows I don’t joke with my family,” Nkechi Blessing wrote in Pidgin language.
The actress added that the cake and celebration was for her late mother’s posthumous birthday, saying no one deserves any explanation from her because they were not there when she suffered with her family.
“My own mother that gave birth to me died on September 22nd 2021… 23rd 2022, I had her quiet remembrance and prayers, went to the streets and gave out food and water, nobody kuku hear anything.
“25th was my mother’s birthday hence the cake and a little party to host a few friends. Not like you all deserve any explanations what I choose to do with my own life. Cus when we dey suffer/hungry I no see any of una, so make all of una try rest,” Blessing added.
