Nollywood actress Bimbo Ademoye pulled off a heartwarming surprise in Toronto, Canada, reuniting with her close friend and makeup artist, La Cici, nearly 10 years after they last saw each other.
The two women met during their National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) days at the Paiko camp in Minna and have maintained their friendship across borders ever since.

La Cici relocated to Toronto, where she now works as a professional makeup artist, while Ademoye remained in Nigeria and built her acting career.
Ademoye was in Canada for the TIFF screening of *The Secret Lives of Baba Segi's Wives*, but she quietly turned the trip into something far more personal.
How Bimbo Ademoye set up the surprise
Knowing La Cici would refuse payment if she discovered her client was actually Ademoye, the actress arranged the booking through a mutual contact named Halima.
Halima posed as someone visiting Toronto for a wedding and enquired about hiring a makeup artist for four days, eventually securing La Sisi for the job and sending a deposit without revealing who she was really booking for.

When La Sisi arrived at the hotel room expecting a stranger, she walked in to find Ademoye waiting. The moment quickly turned emotional, with both women exchanging long hugs and barely holding back tears. Ademoye could be heard repeatedly saying, "I got you" as her friend processed the shock.
"If you cry, I will beat you," Ademoye jokingly told La Sisi, before the pair dissolved into laughter and more embraces.".
Here is the Instagram video of Baimbo Ademoye speaking about her:
