Nigerian actress Laide Bakare is under fire from members of the public following reports that she introduced her 17-year-old daughter to clubbing and alcohol.
The incident, which surfaced on social media earlier this week, has generated widespread criticism and sparked a national conversation on parenting, celebrity influence, and youth exposure to adult environments.
According to circulating videos and online commentary, Bakare was seen accompanying her teenage daughter to a nightclub where alcohol was reportedly served. The footage, which has since gone viral, shows the pair celebrating in what appeared to be a lively adult nightlife setting.
Public Reaction
The public response has been swift and largely critical. Many Nigerians took to social media to express concern, labeling the actress’s actions as “reckless” and “irresponsible.”
Some users accused Bakare of poor judgment, arguing that introducing a minor to such environments could have long-term negative consequences.
“This is not parenting. It’s grooming a child into a lifestyle they are not emotionally or legally prepared for,” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
