Popular Nigerian skit maker and content creator Raheem Abike Halimah, famously known as Papaya Ex, is stepping into her actress era with her first cinema role in the upcoming movie Owambe Thieves.

Taking to Instagram, Papaya shared behind-the-scenes clips from the movie project directed by Eniola Ajao. She revealed that Eniola personally called her to play the character Fifi in the film, which is set to hit cinemas on April 18th, 2025.

Expressing her excitement, Papaya declared:
Officially in my Actress era. @eniola_ajao called to act as FIFI in her CINEMA movie: OWAMBE THIEVES. Out this April 18th, 2025, in all cinemas. Can’t wait for y’all to see me on the big screen.”

Fans and supporters have flooded her comment section with pride and encouragement:

  • “Owambe na your thing normally, so she supposes call you.” – @Ciliapeaches

  • “I go watch because of Papaya.” – @Maku_Chukwu

  • “Many more to come, paps.” – @Depresh Collection

Papaya Ex has gained recognition in Nigeria’s entertainment industry for her engaging skits, vibrant personality, and luxurious lifestyle. Transitioning to acting is a natural next step in her career, and fans are thrilled to see her embrace this new chapter.

Her debut comes after a history of collaborations with notable figures, including an appreciation from actress Toyin Abraham in 2024. Toyin praised Papaya for her hospitality, recounting how Papaya welcomed her and her crew into her home for over 24 hours during a film shoot.

Despite her success, Papaya has faced rumors and controversies regarding her lifestyle and income. She has consistently debunked claims of being funded by a sugar daddy, asserting her independence and preference for younger men.

In 2022, she also refuted allegations of dating a married man involved in fraud, clarifying that the individual was merely a friend. Papaya remains focused on her goals, sharing her plans to wait for the right partner before starting a family.
