Mercy Aigbe was seen at the baby shower hosted for Luminee, who recently announced the birth of her child with actor Olanrewaju Omiyinka, popularly known as Baba Ijesha.

The appearance quickly sparked online debate, with many social media users expressing disappointment and questioning the actress’s decision to attend the celebration.

Some critics argued that Mercy Aigbe’s presence at the event sent the wrong message, given the public controversy involving Baba Ijesha, who recently completed a prison sentence before the new family announcement.

Online reactions were swift, with users on X describing the situation as “unfortunate” and expressing shock at footage showing the actress participating in celebratory moments at the baby shower.

Others pointed to clips circulating online where Mercy Aigbe appeared cheerful and engaged during the event, further intensifying the backlash.

One user wrote that the internet can quickly shift attention from silence to controversy, while another questioned the optics of the celebration given the surrounding history of the individuals involved.

Despite the criticism, there has been no official response from Mercy Aigbe or Luminee as of the time of filing this report.
