RMD’s Birthday Post For Omoni Oboli Raises Eyebrows On Online

• RMD shared a scene from their 2019 film “Love Is War” featuring a romantic kiss between their characters.
• The post has sparked controversy among fans and followers.

Veteran Nigerian actor Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD) has sparked controversy with a recent birthday message to fellow actress Omoni Oboli. To celebrate Omoni’s special day, RMD shared a memorable scene from their 2019 film Love Is War, in which the two characters share a romantic kiss. Alongside the image, RMD wrote:

“Happy birthday STARGIRL!!! I can’t wait for our next round of movies.”

While Omoni Oboli marked her birthday with a joyful Instagram post, RMD’s gesture quickly attracted a variety of reactions. Some fans were quick to criticize the choice of the image, citing its intimate nature as inappropriate given both actors’ marital statuses. Omoni is married, and RMD is also known to be in a committed relationship, which led to some followers questioning the boundaries of such public displays of affection between colleagues.

Despite the backlash, RMD’s post was meant as a lighthearted tribute to his co-star and friend. In his message, he expressed enthusiasm for their past work together and hinted at upcoming collaborations, reaffirming their professional relationship. RMD’s comment was a celebration of their on-screen chemistry, which has been a defining feature of their collaboration on Love Is War.

The mixed reactions from fans, however, highlight the sometimes delicate balance public figures must maintain when sharing personal moments online. What was intended as a playful birthday greeting instead ignited a conversation about the boundaries of professionalism and personal relationships in the public eye. Nonetheless, RMD’s intentions appear to be rooted in admiration for his colleague and excitement for their future projects together.
