Nollywood actress and singer Angela Okorie has set social media abuzz after appearing to throw shade at fellow actress Destiny Etiko following a tense moment between the two at the star-studded wedding of actress Ruby Ojiakor and filmmaker Moc Madu.
The lavish ceremony, held on Saturday, May 31st, drew numerous celebrities from the Nollywood scene, including Luchy Donalds, Lizzy Gold, Queeneth Hilbert, and other notable faces. But amid the celebrations, a subtle moment of friction between Angela and Destiny managed to steal the spotlight and not for the reasons one might expect.
In a viral clip that has since circulated widely across Instagram and TikTok, Destiny Etiko is seen joyfully dancing with the bride and groom on the dance floor. Moments later, Angela Okorie steps in to serenade the couple with a live performance of one of her songs. What happened next sparked speculation: Destiny suddenly exited the stage, walking off in what many fans interpreted as a deliberate snub.
The internet immediately lit up with theories of an ongoing feud between the two actresses, with fans dissecting body language, past interviews, and industry rumors for context. But it didn’t end there.
Fueling the speculation further, Angela Okorie took to her Instagram page not long after the wedding and posted videos from the event. What caught fans’ attention, however, wasn’t the glitz of the wedding but the caption that accompanied her post.
“When light walks in, darkness disappears. Light and Darkness have nothing in common. I am light, and when I walk into a place, my presence overshadows every evil. Legit queen for a reason. Anticipate #queenofguns. Congratulations to the newest couple in town,” she wrote.
Though she mentioned no names, the timing and tone of the message left little room for doubt in the eyes of social media users, many of whom viewed it as a direct jab at Destiny Etiko.
Angela’s cryptic reference to being “light” and “overshadowing every evil” appeared to imply superiority both in presence and persona. The post also served as a teaser for her upcoming project, Queen of Guns, which she has been promoting in recent weeks.
While neither Angela nor Destiny has directly addressed the incident or confirmed any personal beef, the unfolding drama has kept fans glued to their screens, awaiting the next move from either camp.
As the dust settles from Ruby and Moc’s fairytale wedding, one thing is certain, this unexpected rift has added a fresh twist to Nollywood’s ongoing saga of celebrity friendships, rivalries, and subtle shade.
