Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has sparked fresh controversy after publicly addressing the ongoing tension between colleagues Toyin Abraham and Funke Akindele following a reported awkward encounter at a recent movie premiere.
The drama began after Funke Akindele allegedly snubbed Toyin Abraham at Iyabo Ojo’s film premiere — a moment that quickly went viral and reignited talks of an old rivalry between the two stars.
Reacting to the backlash, Iyabo Ojo took to social media to express frustration over what she described as a broken peace agreement she had previously mediated between both actresses.
According to her, she had successfully stepped in during an earlier dispute and managed to reconcile both parties under a clear condition — that none of them would engage in online shading or public call-outs if future issues arose.
However, she now claims that condition was violated following recent events linked to Toyin Abraham’s public concerns about alleged sabotage surrounding her movie release. The situation reportedly led fans to speculate and point fingers, further escalating tensions between both camps.
Iyabo revealed that she had gone to great lengths to restore peace between them, including pleading emotionally and even kneeling during reconciliation efforts, which eventually led to a temporary truce and public friendliness between the actresses.
But with the latest fallout, she expressed deep disappointment, stating that she no longer wants to be involved in mediating their relationship drama.
The incident has once again exposed the fragile nature of celebrity friendships in Nollywood, where personal disagreements often spill into the public space and trigger massive online reactions.
For now, Iyabo Ojo says she is stepping back completely — leaving fans to wonder whether peace between the two screen stars can ever truly last.
