Nollywood actor Lateef Adedimeji has shared a message about protecting one’s peace and mental health amid the constant noise on social media, shortly after a viral video involving his wife, Mo Bimpe, generated controversy online.
The AMVCA-winning actor posted the message on his social media page as discussions surrounding the viral footage continued to attract attention.
Lateef wrote:
“Guard your mental space from social media noise, own your focus, and stay undefeated,”
Video of Mo Bimpe at Movie Premiere Causes Stir
Lateef’s message came days after a short video from content creator Folagade Banks’ movie premiere made the rounds online.
In the footage, Mo Bimpe could be seen sitting between her husband, Lateef Adedimeji, and fellow actor Jide Awobona.
The actress appeared to be having an animated conversation with Awobona, a moment that quickly became a subject of discussion among social media users.
Some viewers claimed that Lateef appeared uncomfortable while his wife interacted with the actor, leading to widespread speculation about the situation.
Mo Bimpe Responds to Critics
Before Lateef addressed the matter, Mo Bimpe had already reacted to the online criticism.
The actress questioned why a brief video lasting about one minute had generated so much scrutiny and speculation about her marriage.
She explained that relationships do not all function according to insecurity, fear or the constant monitoring of a partner’s interactions.
Mo Bimpe further maintained that her husband is confident in their relationship and has no reason to feel threatened by her speaking with Jide Awobona, whom she described as a family friend.
Lateef Sends Message Amid Online Chatter
Lateef’s latest post appeared to echo the same perspective, urging people not to allow social media discussions to interfere with their emotional well-being.
Rather than directly addressing the controversy surrounding the video, the actor encouraged his followers to control what they give their attention to and remain focused despite the distractions that can come from online platforms.
His message has since attracted attention as social media users continue to discuss the viral moment involving the couple and Jide Awobona.
