‘There is no excuse for biting the finger that fed you” – Yomi Fabiyi slams Mo Bimpe
In a recent development, Yomi Fabiyi, a Nigerian actor, has criticized his former protegee, Bimpe Oyebade, popularly known as Mo Bimpe, in response to her reaction regarding his viral interview.
The controversy arose after Yomi Fabiyi revealed details about their alleged sexual relationship, leading to a back-and-forth exchange between the two actors.
Yomi Fabiyi expressed his frustration at being wrongly labeled concerning his issues with Mo Bimpe, whom he claims to have trained.
He disclosed that he first encountered Mo Bimpe in 2016 while preparing to shoot a movie.
At the time, Mo Bimpe, who was a youth corps member, expressed interest in acting.
According to Yomi Fabiyi, he played a crucial role in grooming Mo Bimpe for the role she eventually portrayed in the movie. Despite her lack of experience, he ensured that renowned Nollywood artists were not deterred from working with her.
However, Mo Bimpe’s recent response seemed dismissive of Yomi Fabiyi’s contributions.
In her social media post, Mo Bimpe wrote that she is currently in her “soft woman era” and is only available for enjoyment.
This statement caught Yomi Fabiyi’s attention, prompting him to call her out by sharing a video of his graduating students.
Accompanying the video, Yomi Fabiyi penned a lengthy caption emphasizing the importance of gratitude and respect in the industry.
He wrote;
“You can’t buy CLASS. You can be anything, but please don’t be an INGRATE.
This is a LADDER many innocent people are climbing to fulfill their destiny. Any attempt to burn, destroy, or defame it after using it for selfish purposes will be resisted by every noble means.
There is no excuse for biting the finger that fed you or destroying the ladder you used up. Association of ingrates and users will never take over an industry that is surviving on the bedrock of Culture of Gratitude, Culture of Respect, and Culture of Talent Discovery.
Manage your expectations and desperation. DO NOT BURN BRIDGES. It will hunt and hurt you forever. DON’T DECIEVE, DON’T LEAD PEOPLE ON, DON’T USE PEOPLE AND DON’T DESTROY OTHERS INTENTIONALLY, DON’T CUT CORNERS, it doesn’t end well. Be positively desperate only.”
