A film director called me ‘past glory’ on set recently – Amina Eleha tearfully opens up to Biola Adebayo

In the spotlight of a movie set, where laughter and togetherness should thrive, Amina Eleha, according to her, instead found the sharp sting of betrayal. It is a term that implies obsolescence, a reminder that in the unforgiving world of entertainment, yesterday's achievements are nothing but a distant memory, easily forgotten by those who never walked the path of hard-earned reputation. Her tears are the echoes of a once-revered name, mourning the respect that has slipped through my fingers like sand


Veteran Nigerian Yoruba actress Adebukola Mosoba, better known as Amina Eleha, ignited a firestorm of emotions online with her heartfelt and tearful recounting of a recent experience on set.

This thespian, who has largely been absent from the screen in recent years, was a guest on her colleague Biola Adebayo’s talk show, where she bravely opened up about her harrowing battle with a life-threatening illness and how fellow actor Kunle Afod came to her rescue during that dark time.

In a poignant moment, Amina revealed how she was invited by one of her cherished junior colleagues to join the production, only to face a shocking betrayal from the film’s director—someone she once knew as a bright young talent whom she had generously supported in the past.

Instead of showing respect, Amina Eleha said the director cruelly dismissed her as “past glory” right in front of the cast and crew, a label that cut deep and echoed throughout the set.

Amina recounted how this director not only belittled her but also did everything possible to undermine her presence on set, fostering an atmosphere of disdain that left her in tears.

According to her, the director went so far as to manipulate the producer into removing her from the project entirely, all without offending them.

As she shared her story, Amina’s voice trembled with emotion, recalling the moment when a concerned colleague stepped in to offer comfort and reassurance.

This colleague, recognizing the pain of the moment, according to Eleha, assured her that God would indeed restore her lost glory, reignited her spirit amidst the storm of disrespect.
