A controversy has erupted in the Nigerian entertainment industry following the sudden death of popular actress and movie producer, Allwell Ademola. The actress passed away on December 27, 2025, just 24 hours after posting a song titled “this year will never see my end” on her social media page. Her colleagues, including Iyabo Ojo and Lateef Adedimeji, took to social media to express their shock and condolences. However, the deceased’s brother has accused these A-list actors of hypocrisy, stating that they did not support his sister while she was alive.

In a viral video, Allwell’s brother criticized the actors for posting condolences messages and pictures of his sister on their social media pages, despite not supporting her during her lifetime. He questioned how many of them had promoted her movies or hired her for their film projects. The brother also recalled how his sister had supported many of these actors when they were starting out in the industry, but they did not reciprocate the gesture.

However, the industry has also been criticized for its lack of unity and support among its members.

The brother’s accusation has sparked a debate about the level of support and camaraderie among Nigerian actors. While many have expressed their condolences and praised Allwell’s contributions to the industry, others have been criticized for their lack of action during her lifetime.
