Nollywood actress Rita Dominic was among the notable stars who attended the premiere of Iyabo Ojo’s movie, The Return of Arinzo, held in Lagos on Sunday, March 29, 2026.
A viral clip from the event showed the warm and respectful reception she received from colleagues, including Iyabo Ojo, Funke Akindele, and Mercy Aigbe.
Upon arrival, Rita was greeted by the host, Iyabo Ojo. She then made her way to the table where Funke Akindele and Mercy Aigbe were seated.
Both actresses stood up to embrace her before she was ushered to her seat.
The kind reception given to the veteran actress stood in sharp contrast to the earlier moment at the same event when Toyin Abraham was ignored by Funke Akindele.
It would be recalled that the incident involving Toyin Abraham later spilt onto social media, with both actresses unfollowing each other, triggering reactions from fans and colleagues, many of whom took sides.
Watch the video below:
