Kazim Adeoti reveals how he handle criticism over his marriage to Mercy Aigbe
Kazim Adeoti, the Nollywood movie marketer, has revealed how he handles criticism surrounding his marriage to actress Mercy Aigbe.
In January 2022, Mercy unveiled the filmmaker as her husband much to the surprise of many. Funsho Adeoti, Kazim’s first wife, accused Mercy of snatching her husband.
The movie producer defended his decision to marry a second wife, citing his Muslim faith.
Kazim spoke on the matter at the National Film and Video Censors Board’s (NFVCB) 4th Peace Ayiam Osigwe (PAO) Nigeria Digital Content Regulation Conference on Thursday in Lagos.
In a chat with journalists, the movie producer said as a public figure, he cannot control others’ opinions or narratives about his marriage.
Kazim added that he stays focused on his work, believing the end justifies the means.
“When you find yourself in the public domain, you cannot really control a whole lot of opinions or narratives. What is most important is for you to be focused and at the end of the day, the end justifies the means,” he said.
