Newly married Nollywood actress, Bimpe Akintunde, has opened up about why she’s scaled back on celebrating some of her fellow colleagues. In an honest Instagram post, she expressed her vexation about pouring out birthday wishes to her peers, only to be met with silence in return.
Bimpe shared her frustration at how she had consistently celebrated the birthdays of her colleagues, yet many of them failed to acknowledge her heartfelt messages and greetings. She described how this one-sided interaction had led her to stop celebrating certain individuals, emphasizing that her gesture was never contingent on receiving reciprocation.
In her impassioned plea, she implored her colleagues to show gratitude and simply say “thank you” or drop a love emoji when others celebrated them. She highlighted the irony that some people go the extra mile to write lengthy birthday epistles and excessively praise their peers, only to have their own posts ignored.
The caption accompanying the video further emphasized her message of mutual appreciation and support within the industry.
The reactions from her fellow celebrities in the comment section affirmed her sentiments, with many concurring and expressing understanding for the challenges of navigating the complexities of Instagram interactions.
