Eniola Badmus, caused a fuss on Instagram when she made some controversial posts, which many believed were targeted at Toyin Abraham in April.
“There is no point sugar coating or stealing title…ema lo wa o (don’t come),” Eniola Badmus wrote on Instagram, at the time; both Nollywood stars were promoting their forthcoming movies. Toyin Abraham’s movie is titled, “The Ghost and the Tout”, which she has been promoting it for months started showing in cinemas in May. While Badmus’ film titled “Ghetto Bred” his expected to drop on June 22. “I really don’t know what the story-line for “Ghost and the Tout” looks like. And also, the title of the movie is not the same as mine,” Eniola Badmus told Pulse. “But Toyin Abraham was able to use the title of my movie on the cover of her movie trailer, which got a lot of people thinking, ‘okay, what’s going on?’, this is not Ghetto Bred, Eniola Badmus has been publicizing Ghetto Bred’ for quite some time.”
Eniola Badmus played the role of a taxi driver with the soul of a tomboy who lives in a ghetto with her educated elder brother, in “Ghetto Bred” which stars Jide Kosoko, Yaw, Bolanle Ninolowo, Ushbebe, and Lisa Omorodion among others
The actress continued: “I have been doing a whole lot about ‘Ghetto Bred’ since July 2017, so why is she using it as the cover for her movie trailer? So that was the only thing that got me talking. So that’s about it. I’m not in any beef with anybody. I just said mine and I moved on from there.” Badmus also disclosed that she really can’t remember what inspired her new project, but noted that she’s a typical production person, who just woke up one day and thought about a character before calling the scriptwriter.
