Famous Nigerian actress Omotola Jalade has addressed the alleged feud with her colleague, Genevieve Nnaji.

According to her, in an interview on Yanga FM, she was not best friends with Genevieve, but there was no existing feud between them.

Omotola accuses fans of pitching them against each other, explaining that, “Na them start the quarrel before we know say we dey quarrel. So, we have to catch up with the quarrel. There was no quarrel.”

The interviewer further asked: “Was there anything like say una been quarrel wey lasted for twenty years before EJ movie?”

Omotola replied: “People don’t need to be best friends, but we talked. Like behind the film, we dey talk normally. You know the same thing they do with all these music stars, na, we dem take start all those things back then.

“Na we be the practice that time. You know all this Wizkid, Davido now that they have taken to a different level, na we be the first one now. Really, na them start the quarrel before we know say we dey quarrel. So, we have to catch up with the quarrel. There was no quarrel.

In November last year, Nigerian music stars Yemi Alade and Tiwa Savage settled their long-standing seven-year rift.

Their disagreement traced back to a social media episode in which Yemi Alade made a veiled remark about female celebrities enhancing their backside in pictures to “deceive their fans.”

The post followed Tiwa Savage’s curve-focused photos. Tiwa quickly hit back, stating, “Don’t start a war you can’t finish.”

The two artistes finally reconnected on Thursday in Lagos at ‘The Price of Being Her’ panel hosted by Entertainment Week Africa.In a widely shared video from the programme, Alade addressed Tiwa directly: “I honestly want you to know that those moments you get rugged and do what you truly want to do, you are standing up for many females. Just continue being you. You are literally walking in strength.”

Tiwa was visibly touched by the tribute and was later seen in another video singing and embracing Alade warmly.

Yemi Alade clearly stated that she will choose her peace of mind over a collaboration with colleague, Tiwa Savage.

In an interview session with Chude, Yemi Alade stated that she fully supports the idea of supporting women on every level but she not in the case of Tiwa Savage.

She explained; "You know the thing is that fans and media just tend to stir the water where the water is supposed to be still.”

“I know that the fan-favourite collaboration is the one you mentioned. I’d rather just stay clear; I don’t want problems in my life. I don’t want problems.

Adding that she’d rather “just exist and not try to make something out of nothing.”
