The long-standing feud between Nollywood actresses Iyabo Ojo and Lizzy Anjorin took a dramatic turn over the weekend, as emotions flared following a heartwarming announcement from Priscilla Ojo, Iyabo’s daughter.
Priscilla recently revealed she is expecting her first child with Tanzanian singer Juma Jux, sharing elegant maternity photos that quickly spread across social media. While the announcement drew widespread celebration from fans and fellow celebrities, one notable silence stood out—Lizzy Anjorin’s.
The absence of a congratulatory message from Lizzy soon sparked online speculation. Fans accused her of being jealous or intentionally dismissive. In response, Lizzy released an emotionally charged video in which she lashed out not only at Iyabo but also made disturbing remarks about her daughter. Her words shocked many, as she expressed hostility toward the unborn child and branded Iyabo “a disgrace.”
“Even if she gives birth to 20 children, they will all perish,” Lizzy said in a rant that has since triggered widespread condemnation.
Iyabo Ojo, never one to stay silent when it comes to protecting her family, responded firmly. While expressing a desire for peace, she made it clear she would not tolerate threats or public defamation involving her children. Iyabo accused Lizzy of crossing the line and warned that if any harm should come to her or her children, Lizzy should be held responsible.
“I want everyone to know: if anything happens to me or my children, hold Lizzy Anjorin accountable,” she declared in a strongly worded post.
The explosive exchange has reignited public interest in the actresses’ rocky history and raised concerns about how quickly personal matters can spiral on social media. What should have been a moment of joy for the Ojo family has now become a bitter flashpoint in one of Nollywood’s most notorious celebrity rivalries.
