"I Am Done!" Iyabo Ojo Bows Out as Funke Akindele & Toyin Abraham Feud Resurfaces
The Nigerian entertainment scene is buzzing once again as fresh drama unfolds among Nollywood heavyweights. Just when fans thought peace had returned between them, a shocking twist has reignited old tensions, dragging one of Nollywood’s most respected actresses into the spotlight. At the center of it all is Iyabo Ojo, who has now publicly washed her hands off the long-standing feud between both parties.
"I Am Done!" Iyabo Ojo Bows Out as Funke Akindele & Toyin Abraham Feud Resurfaces
The latest controversy began after a viral video surfaced from The Return of Arinzo's movie premiere, where Funke Akindele allegedly snubbed Toyin Abraham in public. The clip quickly spread across social media, reigniting conversations about their long-rumoured rivalry. The moment reopened old wounds, with fans taking sides and accusing both actresses of subtle industry competition. Caught in the web of accusations is Iyabo Ojo who has decided to share details about the feud and her part in trying to resolve it.
In a strong and emotionally worded statement, Iyabo Ojo addressed the backlash she has received so far and revealed shocking details about her role behind the scenes.
According to her, she had previously gone as far as kneeling, begging, and mediating peace between both actresses. And for a while, it worked.
However, it didn’t take long before the water was stirred again. She explained that:
Both actresses had agreed to settle issues privately, move on, and not bash each other online. The peace deal however collapsed after cinema-related complaints from Toyin in December, and fan accusations, painting Funke in a bad light.
Iyabo made it clear she is stepping away completely, stating she has “tried her best” and will no longer interfere.
Amid the drama, Iyabo Ojo is staying focused on her career. Her upcoming movie, The Return of Arinzo, is set to hit cinemas, despite the controversy surrounding its premiere.
She also revealed that Toyin Abraham was initially part of the project but had to pull out due to scheduling conflicts, another detail that added fuel to the conversation.
Although, Toyin has made declarations on not mending the bridge with Funke again, some fans are still optimistic that nothing lasts forever, including beef and feuds!
