Nollywood actress Lizzy Anjorin has dragged gospel singer Tope Alabi for failing to perform at her surprise birthday party.
Kemi Filani reported that Tope had refused to honour Lizzy Anjorin at her surprise birthday party on Friday amid payment. According to reports, Tope, on getting to the venue and realizing who she was performing for, refused to perform.
Speaking out, the controversial actress dragged Tope Alabi as she noted how she is a brand that her husband built with an empty stomach. She noted how when Tope had issues with Ajanaku, she stood by her and listened to her music.
Liz noted how she is a Muslim and, as such, didn’t expect her fans to invite a gospel singer to her birthday. She claimed she could never use her money to call Tope Alabi to sing for her.
“Aunty Tope, my fans paid you N4million, and I have the evidence with me. Even if you were paid 500k, were you not an actress? In acting, we were taught that if you are to kiss your enemy on a movie set, you must do it. You are a brand that your husband built with an empty stomach, but I will not ruin everything because of what you did to me yesterday. When you had issues with Prophet Ajanaku and the world rejected you, I stood by you. I play your music at times, not because I need it but because I want to support you. No matter how terrible you think I am, I am not as bad as Prophet Ajanaku.
I am happy you also saw the goodness of God in my life when you were outside my place yesterday. You called me your sister, no matter how much they paid you. You should not have reacted that way. You are not as pure as me. I have impacted and empowered people more than you. I have added more value to society than you. If you judge me, you are not God.
I am a Muslim, and I didn’t expect my fans to invite a gospel singer to my birthday. They should have invited an Islamic singer who is my fan. I can never use my money to call Aunty Tope Alabi to sing for me. The best of her songs is in her album, and I can easily play it in my house. The millions my fans sent to her could have been given to beggars on the street or people who need their hospital bills to be paid. A pregnant woman died recently because she couldn’t afford 500k for hospital bills. I don’t do copy copy like other people. I already warned my fans to stop wasting money. I thank God I am alive and healthy for my birthday. I don’t know why she refused to come down from the car, but the reason is best known to her. I hope my fans have learnt their lessons from this. AUNTY TOPE, I LOVE YOU, BUT I DON’T NEED YOU”.
Over the years, Lizzy has become well known over her daily fight with her colleagues. Her most popular beef is with Iyabo Ojo. For over two years, Iyabo and Lizzy were at war over undisclosed reason. Iyabo had shared a video where she was mimicking and mocking Lizzy humorously. Lizzy, who was offended went on to reveal some intimate details about Iyabo, accusing her of promiscuity.
Following the allegation, Iyabo threatened legal action against Lizzy, demanding a public apology or risk paying N500 million for her libellous publication.
Last year, Iyabo filed a defamatory lawsuit against Lizzy; unfortunately, Lizzy failed to attend court during their first hearing. The court had later served her letters, which were pasted on her house gate.
In July, the judge presiding over their case had played a mediator between the two as he reconciled the actresses. Confirming it to the press, Iyabo stated that the judge gave both of them motherly advice to stop fighting and cursing each other on social media and embrace peace.
In an interview with Chude Jideonwo, Lizzy addressed claims of constantly fighting her colleagues. She revealed that she doesn’t come for people except they come for her, as she noted how her reputation as a business tycoon and actress doesn’t allow her to pick fights with people. She blamed all her social media spats on her colleagues, who she claimed were the real troublemakers.
