Actress Angela Okorie has raised alarm over what she describes as growing envy and malicious intent from some of her colleagues in the entertainment industry.
In a Instagram post, Okorie expressed frustration over others copying her style and persona, alleging that some even wish her harm. “If it wasn’t for God, my enemies would have killed me by now,” she wrote, attributing her continued safety to divine protection.
She said she finds it difficult to understand the level of hatred directed at her, adding that trust is becoming increasingly hard to maintain in the industry.
“It’s one thing to imitate me, but when the intention is to harm or replace me, that’s where I draw the line,” she stated, alleging that some individuals pretend to be her friends while secretly plotting against her.
Okorie described their actions as being driven by jealousy and a desperate desire to take her place, calling for authenticity and peace among entertainers.
“If it wasn’t for God na so my enemies for don take kpai me. The kind things wey dey sup for this industry na only God dey save me, cos I have tried to process it, this whole hate, what is it all about?
“Reasons I run from most people who extend hand of friendships, nobody to trust, because some of these people don’t even like me but what to be friends with me so bad. Una wan poison me?
“The hate is too much now. Take a look at some of them, they wanna be me so bad, like there’s nothing wrong with people copying your style. The scary part is wanting to take the person out of the surface of the earth is wickedness”, she wrote.
