Nollywood actress Laide Bakare has continued to address the public following backlash for taking her daughter to the club.
Taking to her Instagram page, Laide made it known that she and her daughter are innocent and she never introduced her to alcohol.
“Simlineboss and I are innocent
My birthday is in a few days. October 7th on my mind 🙏🏽 @laide.bakarehub is sorry. Makeup @anikesignatures”.
In another post, Laide shared the video of her and her daughter in the club, as she clarified that she never introduced her daughter to alcohol.
“So we just found the video @simlineboss in da club for Her After party, but I didn’t introduce her to Alcoholic drinks, it was a slip of tongue.
Sorry, my bad”.
Kemi Filani reported that in a recent chat, Laide revealed that she was the one who first introduced her daughter to clubbing and alcohol at age 17.
The shocking revelation didn’t sit well with social media users, who mercilessly dragged her.
Reacting to the backlash, on her Instagram page, Laide said she didn’t introduce her daughter to alcohol but only took her to a club. She explained that it was to give her a bit of exposure towards the future, and she isn’t as bad as people think.
Last month, Laide went all out for her daughter as she turned 17. To celebrate her new age, the actress threw a lavish birthday party at the Oriëntal Hotel, Lagos, which was attended by the likes of Biola Bayo and Ayo Olaiya.
One of the event’s highlights was when Similoluwa gave her speech at her party, breaking down in tears as she spoke about her mother. She praised her mother for being strong and the best, and noted how Laide went the extra mile, despite the economy, to make her happy and give her her heart’s desire.
On Simi’s birthday, Laide had appreciated her daughter for being a good girl. She noted how her daughter is a better version of herself as she appreciated her for always supporting and learning from her without doubt.
In 2022, the Yoruba actress, revealed why she kept her daughter away from the public. She stated that her daughter is too hot, and she still has five more years to go before publicizing her handle.
