Neither Femi Adebayo nor Dayo Amusa has officially addressed the video; the visuals alone have spoken loudly.
The disagreement between the two stars dates back to March 2024, during the premiere of Eniola Ajao’s movie Ajakaju: Beast of Two Worlds.
At the event, the “Best Dressed Female” award was presented to popular crossdresser Bobrisky, along with a cash prize of one million naira.
Femi Adebayo was among those who announced the winner on stage, a move that quickly became controversial online.
Shortly after, Dayo Amusa released a video expressing deep displeasure over the decision.
She questioned why a crossdresser was placed in the same category as women, insisting that it diminished the efforts of female attendees and disrespected womanhood.
Rather than calm the situation, Femi Adebayo’s response added fuel to the fire. He advised Dayo Amusa to “channel her energy” into her career.
Femi’s wife, Omotayo Adebayo, popularly known as Aladuke, also publicly supported her husband during the online back-and-forth, further deepening the divide.
