•Actress Kemi Ikuseedun a.k.a. Mummy Wa
Content creator and actress, Kemi Ikuseedun, popularly known as Mummy Wa, has said she is setting firmer boundaries in 2026, declaring that she will no longer take on projects that disrespect her time or compromise her values.
Speaking in an interview with Saturday PUNCH, Mummy Wa explained that protecting her peace and personal principles has become a top priority this year.
She said, “I am no longer available for projects that will disrespect my time, disrespect or drain my values, and reduce whatever I do to ‘just content’.
That phrase, ‘just content’, is something I am no longer comfortable with. I am going to work on myself in different ways. My peace is very important to me, so anything that disrespects my time or my values, I am no longer available for it.”
Addressing her evolution beyond the popular “Mummy Wa” character, the actress noted that while the persona still has room to grow, she is also deliberately creating space for her personal identity and creative range to flourish.
She said, “There is still a whole lot to the Mummy Wa character. This year, I want to explore and observe more. I am allowing Mummy Wa to age and to observe life. At the same time, I am giving room for Kemi Ikuseedun to bloom, grow, and showcase other sides of herself in filmmaking and storytelling.”
Reflecting on the lessons she took from 2025, she quipped, “It taught me that trends are important, but consistency is far more important. Consistency outweighs trends, alongside the need to reinvent oneself. If something isn’t working, you try again. Even when something has worked for a long time, there is always room to create and explore more. With consistency comes relevance, and people begin to trust your voice. That’s how you stay relevant.”
