A public feud has emerged between Nollywood actresses Bose Akinola and Iya Ibadan as the latter, Rukayat Lawal, publicly called out her colleague over an alleged unpaid balance.
Taking to her Instagram, Iya Ibadan expressed her dissatisfaction with Bose Akinola, stating that she intentionally waited for the new year to demand payment for her services.
In her post, Iya Ibadan emphasized that there is no friendship in business and highlighted the importance of appreciating the efforts of those involved. She revealed that she had promised not to be on Bose Akinola’s movie set if the payment was not made. According to Iya Ibadan, Bose credited her with only ₦500 out of ₦500,000 requested.
This 2024 I No Go Gree For Anybody Seh. Ise logun ise Mura si ise ore mi. I put a lot of effort to get to where I am today, so I know where it hurts when I say it hurts… I intentionally waited for today that if you do not pay me I won’t be on your set. And to my surprise @akinboss12 credited me ₦500 out ₦500k I requested, there is no friendship in business but when our little effort is appreciated then the urge to discharge our duties won’t be rivaled. I’m using this parliamentary medium to call Bose Akinola out to pay my balance. I NO GO GREE FOR ANYBODY this 2024,” Iya Ibadan stated on Instagram.
The public dispute has attracted attention from fans and followers, adding a dramatic twist to the relationship between the two Nollywood stars. Meanwhile, Iya Ibadan recently celebrated achieving verification on Instagram, expressing gratitude to her colleague Folorunsho Adeola for her assistance in the process.
