Just weeks before the delivery, Iyabo Ojo and her colleague Lola Alao organized a surprise baby shower for Priscilla in Canada. Although the actress initially hesitated, fearing unnecessary social media drama, she later embraced the idea, declaring that God’s blessings are meant to be shared.
At the event, Iyabo gave a heartfelt speech, praying for her daughter’s marriage to be blessed and long-lasting. She told Priscilla that she had paid the price through her own experiences to ensure her daughter enjoys peace and happiness in her home.
