Social media fashionista and sister to famous blogger Linda Ikeji, Laura Ikeji Kanu was reported to have been having issues with her sister-in-law Amara Kanu, after Amara called out and insulted Laura’s husband on social media. On Laura’s post on her Instagram page, she revealed her plans to reconcile with Amara and end the fight between both families.
She wrote; “Hey guys,
So this is my beautiful sister in-law, heard she’s great, heard because we have never met but heard she’s cool. Hopefully we’ll meet soon and talk x hug this whole thing out. We were quite cordial until she called my husband out on Instagram n never apologized. Since then we never spoke or exchanged messages, hence the “We re not friends statement. Listen guys I’m not someone to ever bring negative light to the family, I’m a strong defender of family, u see how I love my siblings that’s how I’ve been with all my in-laws. I don’t want to be known as someone who would intentionally bring division among siblings cos I won’t want that With my brother or sisters.”

“My husband n his brother re quite close n I don’t want that to change for any reason Whatsoever. I won’t want that to happen to me and Peks. Besides my in-law is an amazing man. Pls enough of the hate, enough of the name calling, enough of supporting one family or the other, let’s stop the team A or B. In the end we will all sit at a table and eat as one big happy Kanu family.
All I said were from an angry place and I’m never someone to be angry or let a troll get to me. I shouldn’t have. So hey let’s be a lil kinder and let love lead. Will make the first move and put a call through. And Amara pls call ur bro inlaw hun, it’s time for that talk. L”
