Nollywood actresses Iyabo Ojo and Liz Anjorin continue public feud

Nollywood actresses Iyabo Ojo and Liz Anjorin are involved in a long-running public feud that has escalated to legal action. Iyabo Ojo recently stated that her daughter Priscilla’s marriage has prompted her to be more cautious with her public activism and social commentary. Ojo expressed a desire to avoid creating negative perceptions among her daughter’s in-laws through her public confrontations.

Concurrently, Liz Anjorin has declared her intention to continue targeting Ojo despite a Lagos State High Court interim order. The court order restricts Anjorin from publishing or broadcasting images of Ojo’s son, Rakeem. Anjorin has dismissed the legal restrictions, claiming her goal was to cause discomfort to Ojo’s family as part of a broader effort to ‘conquer’ her rival. The dispute includes a N1bn defamation suit filed by Ojo against Anjorin following years of social media accusations.
