Nollywood actress Destiny Etiko has found herself at the center of another industry storm, this time not for anything she said or did, but for the company she keeps. A wave of online reactions has followed her recent silence over a gossip scandal involving fellow actress Ekene Umenwa, and now, a new voice has emerged with a strong warning — stop making friends.
Instagram user Winifredclems, known for her bold commentary on Nollywood drama, took to the comment section of one of Destiny’s recent posts to share a fiery piece of advice. She wrote:
_“Leave friendship you @destinyetikoofficial won’t hear! Every year, every month…this girls u call ur friend always want to bring u down one way or the other! If your heart is made of water, tell us to bring cement and sand to mix it to be strong! nah only asaba actresses we dey hear one thing or the other….uns rest oo.”
Her words, though harsh, struck a chord with many followers who have watched Destiny navigate multiple industry feuds over the years. Winifredclems’ comment quickly gained traction, with hundreds of likes and replies echoing her sentiment — that Destiny’s circle of friends may be more toxic than trustworthy.
This latest outburst comes amid the ongoing tension between Destiny Etiko and Ekene Umenwa, after Ekene was accused of spreading gossip about Destiny. While Destiny chose to respond with grace, writing “She will forgive, but not forget,” many fans feel she’s being too soft on people who constantly betray her.
Winifredclems’ advice, though delivered in Pidgin English and with a touch of humor, carries a serious undertone. She’s essentially telling Destiny to harden her heart, stop trusting easily, and perhaps even distance herself from the “Asaba actresses” — a term often used to describe a clique of Nollywood actresses from Delta State who are frequently linked to industry drama.
