Nollywood actor Yomi Fabiyi has dragged Iyabo Ojo on social media for the umpteenth time over her role in their colleague, Baba Ijesha’s case.
Recall that in 2021, the Nollywood actor, whose real name is Olanrewaju James, was arrested for defiling a 14-year-old girl. In 2022, the movie star was sentenced to 16 years in prison. Many notable figures, including Iyabo Ojo were involved in the case to ensure the young girl got justice.

After a few years, Yomi Fabiyi, who was on the side of Baba Ijesha, has continued to speak about the case on social media. The actor went live on his Instagram page to claim that Iyabo Ojo had said she would make sure he’s not able to travel abroad ever again.
This led to Yomi Fabiyi bragging about how he started travelling out of the country even before Iyabo Ojo and her colleague, Funke Akindele. According to him, he was married to a British woman for 10 years and he has been travelling out for 20 years now.
In his words:
“I was married to a British woman for 10 years, I’ve been travelling overseas for 20 years now. None of them travelled before me, not Funke Akindele, not Iyabo Ojo, I travelled abroad before you people did. Iyabo Ojo said she travelled before me.”
Speaking further in the video, Yomi Fabiyi claimed the court had still not found anything to prove that Baba Ijesha truly molested the 14-year-old girl.
