Nollywood actress and filmmaker Mercy Aigbe has called on parents, especially those involved in custody battles, to prioritize the well-being of their children over personal differences.

The mother of two shared an email she received from a man struggling with co-parenting issues.

Reacting to the message, Mercy urged parents to do better, emphasizing the need to put their children’s interests first.

“Parents really need to do better. How about setting differences aside and focusing on the well-being and what’s best for the kids?” she wrote.

The actress further highlighted that her film ‘Ada Omo Daddy’ is more than just entertainment, as it reflects real-life struggles and stories. She encouraged more people to watch the movie, which is currently streaming on Netflix Naija and Circuit Streams.
