Actress Juliana Olayode has revealed why her mother warned her never to post her on social media again.
The actress who stars as Toyosi in Funke Akindele’s Jenifa’s Dairy disclosed the reason in a video shared via Instagram while celebrating Mothering Sunday.
Speaking in English and Yoruba, the movie state said her mum kicked against posting her on Facebook because when she shared a video of the woman, people started pointing at her in public and called her “Toyo Baby’s mum”.
“Happy Sunday y’all and happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mums out there, I should be posting my mum today but my mum has warned me not to post her on social media anymore. My mum said: ‘Hello Jully, don’t post me on social media anymore. The last time you put me on Facebook when we went to watch ‘Lion of Judah’ (A Tribe Called Judah), all our neighbours just kept staring at me’. So until she changes her mind I can’t,” Juliana said in parts.
The 28-year-old once slammed a troll who mocked her mother for not being able to express herself in English after she was asked to give a review of Funke’s latest A Tribe Called Judah.
The troll said Juliana acts like she comes from a rich family despite her mother’s inability to speak English but Juilaina debunked the statement saying that she came from nothing.
“My mum can’t speak English but I LOVE her to LIFE!!! And I am VERY PROUD of her. No matter what, love your parents, be proud of them and celebrate them always,” she added.
