Hours back, her stepfather, Kazim Adeoti had also praised Mercy Aigbe. He celebrated her strength, greatness, resilience, and success as their first Cinema movie, Ada Omo Daddy, ended its Netflix run. He noted how they had a great run at the Cinemas as the results came out impressive.

Recall that Mercy Aigbe made her first delve into Cinema production with Ada Omo Daddy which was well received by Nigerians. The movie star couldn’t keep calm when her movie grossed one hundred and eighty point seven million and became the 3rd highest grossing movie. This was a huge milestone, especially with competition from Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham.

Late last year, Mercy was left overwhelmed after, Ada Omo Daddy bagged 10 nominations. She shared a screenshot of the nominations as she expressed how grateful and honored she was to be recognized.

Following the success of her first Cinema movie, the movie producer is currently working on her second Cinema movie, Thin Line which she has been teasing on her Instagram page.

Like Ada Omo Daddy, Thinline was also a success at the Cinema as it grossed over N100 million at the box office. Mercy celebrated the achievement by acknowledging her fans’ unwavering support and commitment to ensure her blockbuster thrived and stood tall.
