Actor Lateef Adedimeji has called on fans to treat entertainers with love and show them respect.
Lateef said this in a post on Instagram on Tuesday, explaining to his fans how much their words mean to entertainers.
“Your words usually mean a lot to us, always endeavour that your words do not bring us down.
“If you truly love us, if truly you are our fans, then encourage us, show us love and if we need to be corrected, do so with a sense of respect and humanity,” he wrote.
The actor also revealed that sometimes they get frustrated too, but the fans see them as superheroes.
“We get tired, we get frustrated, we get broke and we get broken. It is rather unfortunate that many see us as heroes who should never fall and some of us try to be as much good role models as we should be,” he wrote.
However, Lateef revealed that no matter how negative things get in his life, his joy comes from making his fans happy.
“There are days I walk into my house, exhausted and tired from the day’s stress, yet all that keeps me going is the smile I put on the faces of those who get to watch me on the screen,” he said.
