Nollywood actress Mercy Aigbe’s husband, Kazim Adeoti, has faced criticism following his outfit choice at the premiere of her latest movie, Thin Line. The star-studded event, held on December 10, 2024, drew significant attention not only for the movie but also for Kazim’s bold fashion statement.
Mercy Aigbe, who has been heavily promoting her new film, attended the premiere alongside her husband, Kazim Adeoti. The movie marketer sported a distinctive two-piece dress that sparked mixed reactions on social media. While some praised his attempt at showcasing unique fashion, others found the outfit unflattering and questioned its appropriateness for the occasion.
The Thin Line premiere was a glamorous affair, with several notable Nollywood stars and entertainers in attendance. Among the guests were actresses Iyabo Ojo, Faithia Williams, and Nkechi Blessing Sunday, as well as skit maker Abdulgafar Ahmad Oluwatoyin, popularly known as Cute Abiola. The event was marked by glitz, glamour, and a display of fashionable ensembles, many of which became talking points online.
Kazim Adeoti’s outfit, however, stole a significant portion of the spotlight. Videos from the event showed the couple dancing closely, with Kazim’s attire prominently on display. His choice of clothing quickly became a trending topic, with some viewers questioning why Mercy allowed him to wear such an outfit. Others defended him, stating that fashion is subjective and encouraging critics to avoid harsh judgments.
