In a recent interview on Nollywood on Radio, popular actress Mercy Aigbe shared insights into her decision to marry renowned movie marketer Kazim Adeoti, popularly known as Adekaz. Aigbe, who married Adekaz in January 2022 as his second wife, described how the relationship is rooted in their shared vision for Nollywood and the collaborative empire they are building.
Aigbe explained, “One of the reasons I got married to him is that we’re both in the same industry. Together, we’re creating a production powerhouse. I felt the need to collaborate with someone who understands the entertainment space, and he shares the same vision for what we want to achieve. Combining our talents, the future looks promising.”
Aigbe’s decision sparked widespread public reactions, especially due to her role as a second wife. She acknowledged the unique challenges of the choice, yet highlighted the growth potential and shared dreams of creating quality Nollywood content. As Adekaz is already a successful movie marketer, the partnership has expanded her influence in the industry, positioning them both to drive Nollywood to greater heights.
Their journey, as she describes, is about building legacy, creating a brand that will last, and promoting Nollywood globally. The couple has already initiated several projects under their production umbrella, marking the start of what Aigbe envisions as a “power duo” with industry-changing influence.
