Nollywood actress Laide Bakare has clarified her comments after facing backlash for allegedly introducing her teenage daughter, Simisola, to alcohol during her 17th birthday celebration.
In a new Instagram post, Bakare explained that she only took her daughter to a nightclub for “a bit of exposure” and not to consume alcohol.
“No pls, I didn’t do Alcohol with @simlineboss, only club, and it’s just to give her a bit of exposure towards the future. I’m not as bad as you think. Don’t forget she is still a minor. A teenager with robust figure,” she wrote.
Reaffirming her stance in another post, the actress stated:
“Let me mention clearly here that I never said I introduced my daughter, @simlineboss, to Alcohol. I only stated that she entered club with me for the very first time in her life at her birthday after-party. How is that bad naw?”
Earlier, a viral video had circulated online in which Bakare appeared to claim that she gave her daughter her first “clubbing and alcohol experience,” sparking criticism from fans and social media users.
