She said that she is ready to forgive and move forward.

Imisi reflected on the emotional distance that has existed between them for years. She explained that their bond during her childhood was weak, but she carries no resentment today.
She said that both she and her mother are doing well in their separate lives, and she hopes her mother continues to seek guidance and growth. “She is my mom, and I’m a woman, I know the pain it takes to bring a child into this world. If God wills it… yeah, I can forgive her. I’ve forgiven people who aren’t even related to me, so of course I can forgive her,”
She added that while their relationship was never strong, she holds nothing against her mother and wishes her well.
Their strained relationship became public months after Imisi’s BBNaija win, when videos surfaced of her mother accusing her of neglect.
Imisi clarified that their issues long predated her fame and that she has been supportive despite the complications. She ended by saying she hopes her mother continues praying and becoming a better person, trusting that healing will come in its own time.

ReplyDeleteWhen a public figure speaks about a strained parent relationship, two realities sit side by side: private pain and public narratives. The public hears reconciliation and applauds. The deeper issue is attachment.
ReplyDeleteA weak childhood bond rarely disappears because adulthood demands maturity from us. Emotional distance in early years often breeds guarded independence later. Forgiveness, in this context, is less about reunion and more about self-protection. It allows her to release anger without reopening old wounds.
Her mother’s public accusations complicate trust. Public shaming alters the power balance. It creates humiliation, and such humiliation lingers longer than conflict. So the real task is not sentimental peace; it is boundary setting.
Imisi’s stance is measured. She acknowledges the cost of motherhood without denying her experience. That shows perspective. But wishing someone growth is not the same as granting unrestricted access.
It's imperative she forgive privately, support wisely, and engage cautiously. Healing does not require closeness, but to be clear on what we are healing from.
Public approval should not dictate the pace of reconciliation. Regret is real, but so is repeated harm. Peace is sustainable only where respect exists.
Nice one
