Veteran Nollywood actress Kate Henshaw has strongly criticized online trolls who engage in name-calling and insults whenever they disagree with her on social media.
Expressing her frustration, the award-winning actress condemned the recurring use of derogatory terms such as “olosho” and “prostitute”, describing it as uninspired and exhausting. She challenged her critics to adopt more intelligent and respectful means of expression rather than resorting to baseless slurs.
Taking to her X (formerly Twitter) page, Kate pointed out that many of those who resort to insults deliberately choose ignorance over reasoned discussions.
“Name-calling like ‘olosho’, ‘prostitute’, and the like is just so tiring to hear. Can’t you come up with more intelligent responses? Oh well, sense was in abundance, but that’s when you decided to walk away, leaving yourself bereft of brains. Dullards.”
As a respected figure in the Nigerian entertainment industry, she has consistently used her platform to advocate for civility, respect, and meaningful discourse, urging social media users to embrace intelligent discussions rather than mindless trolling.
Her comments have sparked conversations about the lack of digital etiquette and the tendency of many netizens to dehumanize public figures instead of addressing issues logically.
With more celebrities speaking out against cyberbullying and online harassment, Kate’s bold statement serves as yet another wake-up call for social media users to uphold decency and respect in public discourse.
