Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo isn’t here for those trolling her over her birthday message to her colleague, Funke Akindele.
Kemi Filani news reported that Iyabo Ojo had showered love on her colleague, Funke Akindele as she clocks 45 today, August 24th.
Joining her colleagues to celebrate her, Iyabo Ojo surprised many when she took to her Instagram page to shower love on the birthday girl.
Iyabo Ojo prayed for more blessings and more wins for her.
“Fly high birthday girl….more blessings more success more wins. Happy birthday mate”.
However, her post didn’t sit well with some of her fans as they felt she was faking her love for the actress.
A troll identified as tscents questioned why the mum of two would celebrate her when she doesn’t follow Funke Akindele on social media.
“You too like Oju aye. Somebody you’re not following why post her on your page ma?
Firing back, Iyabo Ojo revealed that she and Funke have been trying to unblock themselves on social media since they resolved their fight.
However, the new standard set by IG has made it difficult for the actresses to unblock each other.
“Ode odugbo….. Funke & I blocked ourselves and we have been trying to unblock each other, if you’re well informed you well know that IG as made its difficult to unblock each other each other once you both block each other… wisdom is profitable to direct”.
Kemi Filani news recalls Funke Akindele and Iyabo Ojo had been at loggerheads for years now.
Iyabo Ojo had dragged Funke Akindele when a blogger ctiticised Toyin Abraham’s movie, The Ghost and The Tout.
Also, on the 9th December 2021 when Eniola Badmus celebrated her 20 years in Nollywood, and Funke Akindele didn’t show up, Iyabo Ojo threw her a subtle shade at her.
There were speculations that Funke Akindele shunned the event to avoid any drama with Iyabo Ojo and Toyin Abraham following their long time beef.
In a lengthy post shared on her Instagram page, Iyabo Ojo said there had been rumours that someone she once helped in and outside the Nollywood industry finds great joy in constantly stabbing her and tried all her best to destroy her.
Iyabo Ojo said no human was above or beneath her because everyone is equal in the eyes of God, and she doesn’t pretend nor package anything for anyone.
According to Iyabo Ojo, she does not have any reason to hate anyone because she’s beyond blessed and contented with the little she owns.
Iyabo Ojo added that Funke Akindele should stop forming class or disassociating herself from certain people and avoid bringing people together only when needed.
Although Iyabo Ojo didn’t mention Funke Akindele’s name in the post, many netizens claimed the post was directed to Funke following her absence at Eniola’s party.
However, Iyabo Ojo and Funke Akindele had put their beef of many years aside by embracing and exchanging pecks at the Africa Magic Viewers Choice Award season 8.
Funke Akindele embraced Iyabo Ojo after she stepped on stage to accept the award for her movie, Omo Ghetto the saga which was announced by the latter.
Gushing about the moment, Iyabo Ojo said “My day started well but damn!!! i almost didn’t make the #amvcca8 ….Presenting an Award to Funke & most especially hugging her made my day ..Congratulations on your wins mate”
