The fight between ace actress, Mercy Aigbe and a businesswoman, Lara Olokotun, a known shoe vendor popularly known as Larrit, seems to get messier.
The duo who had a brawl at a mutual friend’s store opening on Monday, have taken their fight online.

While the thespian via her verified Instagram page apologised to her fans for the public fisticuff, Aigbe seized the opportunity to explain her part of the story. She claimed that the businesswoman often bullied her online.
Aigbe said in parts, “I have been bullied online several times by Larrit (Lara). She calls me unprintable names unprovoked, yesterday she took It a step further by physically assaulting me. I was at a friend’s store opening (@rhemmygold) to celebrate with her. Larrit (Lara) was one of the guests.
“This woman, for reasons best known to her, slanders me online at every opportunity she gets. She has done many live videos and posts to this effect. I tried to reach out to her to understand what the issues were, but she chose to ignore me.”
However, while reacting to Aigbe’s comment, Larrit has sternly warned the actress that her name should not be mentioned to address issues they don’t want her to react to.
“Listen carefully, this is social media, a public platform. But don’t call my name to address issues you don’t want me to react to period I have ignored every urge to explain ‘shalaye’, and I didn’t mention anyone’s name to chase clout because that what you social media people will turn it into. So please do not trigger me, by mentioning my name henceforth.”(sic)
