Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has finally addressed her ongoing rift with fellow actress Lizzy Anjorin, revealing why she has chosen to remain silent despite repeated insults and even death wishes allegedly directed at her family.
In a candid Instagram post on Sunday, Iyabo explained that her silence was a deliberate choice, despite it being emotionally challenging to remain quiet.
She stated that she preferred to focus her energy on her family rather than engage in public drama.
“I’ve seen all your DMs, voice notes, and questions about my silence despite all the defamatory statements, insults, death wishes, and curses aimed at my family, especially my grandson. Honestly, I struggle to hold my peace, but sometimes silence is necessary. Who God has blessed, no one can curse,” she wrote.
