Nollywood actresses, Biodun Okeowo and Wumi Toriola are back on the gram after taking a break on social media.
Like many Nigerians, the actresses had public meltdown as they bemoaned the mass killings of churchgoers in Ondo State.
On Sunday, June 5th, many worshippers died while several were left injured after suspected Fulani heardsmen attacked St Francis Catholic Church in Owo, the headquarters of Owo Local Government Area of Ondo State.
Wumi Toriola had in a series of rants revealed that she had been left nervous and traumatized. The actress then stated that she would be going off Instagram for a while as she prayed for God to heal the land as the killings are getting too much.
The actress who is now back on Instagram appreciated everyone for the love. She wished that Nigerians could return to the days of true patriotism. She wrote:
“I truly wished we could go back to the days we truly meant “Arise o compatriot”. What can I do in a country where people move on so fast and swift. Once again, my condolences to the families of those affected in the Owo killings, may God comfort you all… To the brands I represent, thanks for allowing me take the short break for my own sanity. To my fans, thank you for your constant check on me. I truly appreciate your love…”.
On her part, Biodun Okeowo aka Omoborty returned to Instagram today and thanked her followers for the love, while telling off trolls. She wrote:
”Good morning lovers
Thanks for your love I really appreciate
For those yearning dust. People have different reason for going off SM for few days.
It could be personal… so why saying it’s because I don’t want to post about the Owo incident?
Did you check my posts and not find it there?
Please let’s apply wisdom when commenting on people’s page.
It’s expected of me to notify my brands and loyal fans that I’ll be going offline, not for you trolls or haters. So next time please keep off my page.
I don’t block o, I restrict so you will be the only one seeing your nonsense comments
Love lives here. If what you have is viole*ce please take it elsewhere. Not here on my page
Ciao!.”
