Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has reignited her long-standing feud with colleague Lizzy Anjorin, publicly accusing her of endangering her family’s safety and cautioning that she should be held responsible if any harm comes their way.
The drama escalated on social media after Lizzy Anjorin took to her page to celebrate what she described as a court victory in a defamation case allegedly filed against her. According to Lizzy, the case had been thrown out, implying that justice had been served in her favour.
But in a strongly-worded Instagram video, Iyabo Ojo dismissed Lizzy’s claims and clarified the status of the legal battle. “Lizzy, we have not started any case. The judge threw the case out because she wanted peace. I have been waiting for you to mention my name,” Iyabo stated, directly countering Lizzy’s narrative.
Iyabo further addressed allegations made by Lizzy regarding her associations and friendships within the industry. “You said I always associate with people that bully you. Lizzy, we are not friends and I don’t owe you any explanation about who I choose to be close to,” she fired back.
The actress, who appeared visibly disturbed by the online tension, accused Lizzy of targeting and dragging anyone seen with her, suggesting a pattern of cyber harassment that has spanned years. She expressed concern over the continued escalation of the feud, especially its psychological and emotional toll.
In what appeared to be the climax of her statement, Iyabo issued a serious and public warning:
“If anything should happen to me or my children, Lizzy, you should be held responsible.”
The comment has since sent shockwaves across the entertainment scene and fan communities, with many expressing concern over the deepening hostility between the two actresses.
Though celebrity feuds are not uncommon in Nollywood, Iyabo’s recent statements have added a grave dimension to this particular clash. Her message serves as both a personal declaration and a legal safeguard in case of any future incidents.
As fans and industry stakeholders await possible responses from Lizzy Anjorin or further developments, one thing is clear: the tension between these two stars has reached a boiling point.
