Iyabo Ojo Supports Princess Over Baba Ijesha Rape Case, Says She Was Outraged by Injustice

Iyabo Ojo supports Princess and explains why she passionately fought for justice during the Baba Ijesha rape saga.

Speaking on The Goldroom with Iyabo, the Nollywood star opened up about the deep emotional connection she had with the case, revealing that she had experienced similar trauma multiple times in her life. This, she said, made the matter personal and ignited her rage when she saw how the story was being twisted to discredit the victim and comedienne Princess, who had raised the alarm.

“I was outraged because I had gone through what that young girl went through multiple times. Enough is enough,” Iyabo stated.

She criticised how many Nigerian adults manipulated the narrative and even attacked the minor and Princess, revealing how far the country still has to go in protecting victims of abuse.

“We are supposed to do right by people. That’s why we are entertainers. We are also evangelists — we preach through our work,” she said, emphasizing her disappointment in fellow entertainers who fail to live up to their moral responsibilities.

Iyabo Ojo didn’t just speak out — she fought. During the height of the saga, she stood firm against her colleague Yomi Fabiyi, who defended Baba Ijesha. Their public clash turned them into sworn enemies, with both parties trading words and throwing shades online.

In a previous interview with Biola Bayo, Iyabo also revealed that she had been raped five times, capturing how deeply personal the matter was to her. She went on to say that if her own son were ever accused of rape, she would not protect him, adding:

“I’ll come for him unapologetically. We have too many rape apologists.”
