(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – Nollywood actress, Kate Henshaw, has stirred the hornet’s nest after she co-hosted a high-profile fundraising ceremony with veteran Nollywood actor, Okey Bakassi, in support of Imo state governor, Hope Uzodimma’s re-election bid.

The African Examiner recalls that Henshaw has been supportive of the Labour Party and its presidential flag bearer, Peter Obi.

However, her appearance at the fundraising event in Owerri pitched her against supporters of the Labour Party who berated her for her lack of loyalty.

The gathering in Owerri was for solidarity for Governor Uzodimma intended to get the necessary support for his upcoming re-election campaign next month.

The African Examiner captures how some netizens reacted on X concerning the appearance of the actress who they thought is a Labour Party faithful anchoring an APC event. Here are some of their views below:

One thing d Obidients fail to understand is that there’s life after election nd she also has bills to pay. As a celebrity she is, she must hustle in order to make ends meet. Will she run to Obi everyday for help?”
