Nollywood actress Rita Edochie has reacted to claims that she is suffering from arthritis after sharing a video of herself dancing.
The actress questioned how her critics could believe she has the condition despite her active lifestyle and ability to move around, travel and remain on her feet for hours.
Rita also accused those spreading the rumour of being jealous because she is currently trending and her name is everywhere.
“Can their mothers ever be as strong, active, energetic, and flexible as I am?
Impossible
Did I perceive that your mother is in the village struggling with her steps? Are you upset that she barely dances as I do?
Your mama get doings?
Oh, poor you, dear; I think I can understand.
Well, you see me moving around, touring different places, standing for hours, active from morning till night, yet your empty head could only find arthritis to talk about.
Chaiii
I am the mother that mothered their mother!!
My doings dey cry.
I am strong, I am active, and I am giving you people pressure.
You are only jealous because I am trending. My name is everywhere, and it is obviously disturbing you.
If you are tired of seeing me, delete your social media accounts and free yourself of it; otherwise, you will go blind from watching me.
Anyway, while you were busy diagnosing yourselves with arthritis, I was actually very busy touring different places to promote and support the cinema movie.”
Rita made the comments while sharing a video of herself dancing, using the footage to dismiss the claims about her health.
