Nollywood actress Lizzy Anjorin has accused Iyabo Ojo of attending the burial of late actress Allwell Ademola “to mock her, even in death.”
In recently circulating videos, Lizzy alleged that Iyabo Ojo only showed up at the solemn event for attention, describing her appearance as a form of clout-chasing.
She also criticised Iyabo Ojo for having a full face of make-up at a moment she believed should have been approached with more emotional restraint.

Allwell Ademola, a respected Nollywood actress, director, and producer, passed away on December 27, 2025, at the age of 43.
She was laid to rest on January 9, 2026, at Atan Cemetery in Yaba, Lagos.
Before her interment, a moving service of songs was held, drawing colleagues, friends, and family members who came together to honour her legacy.
Iyabo Ojo’s presence at the service drew attention. She was seen hugging family members, including Allwell’s brother.
The brother, who had earlier criticised industry colleagues for allegedly abandoning his sister during her final days, apologised to Iyabo Ojo during the event.
In her statement, Lizzy Anjorin accused Iyabo Ojo of using the burial as an opportunity for attention.
She said:
“Iyabo Ojo went to Allwell Ademola’s bur!al to m0ck her even after her d£ath.”
According to Lizzy, Iyabo’s appearance was inappropriate and insincere. She also suggested that the actress’s emotional displays were performed rather than genuine.
