Multiple award-winning actress, Uche Jombo has lambasted trolls mocking colleague, Rita Dominic over her marital status.
She stated this in a Facebook Live on Monday evening.
Jombo had taken to her Facebook page to share a photo of Dominic hours earlier and wish her a happy birthday.
The photo had generated 21,000 likes as of 8:30 pm.
However, she said that another colleague advised her to pull down the photo because her followers on Facebook were attacking Dominic for not being married at her age.

Jombo said she was angered by the irritating behaviour of the so-called fans and blocked no fewer than 25 of those that dropped hurtful comments.
The visibly angry Jombo advised fans not inspired by her page to unfollow her instead of telling her what to post or attacking her friends.
She vowed not to pull down the photo.
“If I post my friend and you don’t like it, move…you that are her age or younger and you are married, how market?
“Them dey carry marriage go heaven?” she asked.
She added that the comments directed at Dominic were disgraceful and uncalled-for.
“Even if she is not married, she did not kill anybody,” Jombo said.
She reiterated her warning to judgemental fans not inspired by her page to unfollow it for their own peace of mind as she would continue to operate the page as she deemed fit.
