Nollywood Star Jide Awobona Launches ‘Jide Alakara’ Catering Service; Fellow Actors Chime In
Nollywood actor Jide Awobona has added akara and bread vending to his portfolio, unveiling “Jide Alakara” on his social media page. In a playful PSA, he announced he’s ready to cater for events—weddings, burials, intimate gatherings—and even offer tutoring alongside his akara trade. Colleagues like Rachael Adelaja, Rotimi Salami and Mo Bimpe responded with cheeky comments, urging him to open branches in other parts of Lagos. Their reactions reflect the buzz around the First Lady’s recent advice for Nigerians to explore small-scale food businesses requiring minimal capital. This move follows in the footsteps of other actors—Nkechi Blessing and Moyo Lawal among them—who have diversified into akara, roasted corn and kuli-kuli ventures. Fans and followers have rallied behind Awobona’s latest hustle, blending entertainment and entrepreneurship discussions.
