Actress Wunmi Toriola has buried the hatchet after she called out producer Afeez Owo, husband of actress Mide Martins.
The Yoruba movie star admitted she had reflected on her actions and expressed readiness to move forward peacefully.
Earlier, Wunmi had lashed out at Afeez, describing him as an elderly man who should avoid unnecessary drama. Despite her remarks, she stressed that she still respected him.
Her comments sparked outrage among fans, who reminded her of the importance of showing respect to senior colleagues in the industry.
Responding to the backlash, Wunmi shared a video of herself aboard a plane on Instagram, captioning it: “The face of a repentant child. It is still all love. Thank you all for the backlash. Omo ta ba fe lan bawi.”

This is coming a few days after Afeez Abiodun stated that his wife, Mide Martins, is completely different from the character she plays on screen.
Abiodun, who has been married to Mide for nearly two decades, noted that while audiences may see her act as a tough and confrontational woman in movies, she is in reality calm and non-violent.
“She’s the opposite of what people see on TV,” he said in a recent interview. “I have never had any reason to separate her from fighting anyone on set. She would rather get into her car and drive off than engage in any fight.”
He further compared her to their colleague, actress Wunmi Toriola, whom he described as closer in real life to the no-nonsense roles she plays in films.
“Wunmi’s character is a bit similar to her role in movies,” he said. “If you don’t look for her trouble she won’t fight you, but if you trespass, she will act exactly as you see in movies.”
