Nollywood actress, Mercy Aigbe, has hit back at critics for condemning her new marriage to film-maker Adeoti Kazim.
Aigbe has reacted to different comments, especially those who said she married Kazim for ‘money’.
Mercy, in January, revealed her relationship with the boss of Adekaz Production, who has produced some of her movies.
She said: “Please, I just want to tell Nigerians that I’m not the first person to be a second wife. It is my choice, and I’m happy with it. Let everybody just leave me to enjoy my marriage. If you can be happy for me, be happy for me. If you cannot be happy, you can get busy.”
She explained that after her last marriage, she had decided to focus on her career and kids but the appearance of her new husband (Kazim) changed her mind-set.
“He (Kazim) brought so much joy, peace and happiness to my life. I tell him all the time that he is a good man. So when he popped the question, I decided to give it a try that this is the last bus stop. I’m glad it is a decision I took.
“He has been amazing, and supportive. I didn’t marry him because of his money. He gives me peace, and joy.”
