The overlay read:
"For those talking about my dressing on line this is for you."
She reinforced the sentiment in the post's caption, writing:
"What I wear is what I feel comfortable to wear, so talk is cheap."
The response comes on the heels of renewed public discussion that surfaced after footage from one of her recent event appearances began making the rounds on social media
It is not the first time the actress has found herself at the centre of such conversations; Ukpabi has faced similar commentary on multiple occasions in recent years, with criticism typically resurfacing whenever she appears at public gatherings.
As an actress with a long filmography and ties to the Actors Guild of Nigeria, Ukpabi maintains a steady public profile, which has kept her in the sights of both fans and critics alike.
Her latest response signals that she has little patience for unsolicited opinions on her wardrobe, choosing comfort and personal expression over external expectations.
