‘You Don’t Need Everyone to Understand’: Mercy Aigbe on Growth Amid Tension With Funke Akindele
In a video shared on her Instagram page, Mercy Aigbe said growth often means outgrowing versions of yourself that others are comfortable with. She added that the hardest part of growth is not change, but realising that not everyone will understand your evolution. The actress insisted that you do not need everyone to understand you. She urged her followers to keep becoming their best selves. This message surfaced hours after an awkward moment with Funke Akindele at a movie premiere hosted by Iyabo Ojo. In the clip, Mercy stood between Funke and the host and made a cryptic remark just as Funke was greeted on stage. Mercy and Funke have a history of public interactions. Funke once surprised Mercy on her 44th birthday with a heartfelt video tribute. They also united when Mercy faced criticism from Iyabo Ojo over a Range Rover gift. The on-screen chemistry now sits against a backdrop of these past moments.
