Mide Martins, wife of actor Afeez Owo, has built a strong fashion identity around the traditional Yoruba Iro and Buba ensemble, making it her unmistakable signature over the years.

So when she arrived at the event in a simple gown instead, Kemity, who was also in attendance, was not about to let it slide.
Kemity, dressed in Iro and Buba herself, went straight to Mide and challenged her on the outfit switch. Mide's response was breezy; she told her colleague she was simply taking a break from her usual look.
She also took the moment to acknowledge that she had played a key role in popularising the Iro and Buba trend among others.
Kemity Joins the Iro and Buba Gang
Rather than let the moment pass, Kemity turned the friendly confrontation into a personal declaration. She announced that she has formally joined what she described as the Iro and Buba gang, fully embracing the traditional style as her own.
She then issued a direct warning to anyone thinking of inviting her to future events: do not push back against her wearing Iro and Buba, or they should not expect to see her there at all.
The exchange, which unfolded publicly, quickly caught attention online and sparked conversation among fans of both actresses.
