Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has unfollowed fellow actress Biola Adebayo on Instagram, a move that appears to mark a rift following Biola’s podcast interview with convicted actor Baba Ijesha.
A review of Iyabo’s Instagram account shows she no longer follows Biola, while Biola continues to follow Iyabo, suggesting the action is one-sided.
The fallout stems from Biola’s interview in which Baba Ijesha denied sexually assaulting a minor and described the incident as a setup. During the conversation, he expressed feeling hurt over Iyabo’s role, recalling that she had once trusted him enough to leave her children in his care.
Iyabo responded angrily, warning the actor against involving her children in the matter. “I have no problem with you telling your side of the story, but take this as a notice to cease from using my children as your cheap bait. It won’t fly,” she said.
She added, “Please don’t drag my kids into this. Stop mentioning their names else I would direct my counsel to serve you appropriate papers.”
The social media action by Iyabo has sparked online discussions about boundaries, family privacy, and the ethics of involving relatives in public disputes.
