Iyan Aladuke Express comes after a difficult period
The launch carries added significance given what Iyan Aladuke endured just months earlier. The mother of one had publicly spoken out after armed men shut down what appeared to be a previous business premises.
The mother of one shared her distress with fans online, who rallied around her with support. At the time, many pointed accusing fingers at Femi Adebayo, alleging he had reclaimed the property following their separation, though no confirmed statement addressed those claims directly.

Netizen shares observation about Iyan Aladuke
Legit.ng reported that a concerned netizen sparked reactions online after weighing in on the kind of friends surrounding Femi Adebayo’s ex-wife, Iyan Aladuke, following their highly publicised breakup.
In a video circulating on social media, the content creator questioned whether the people around her were offering the right advice and support during the difficult period. The netizen also suggested that Iyan Aladuke’s behaviour on social media since the separation was reinforcing the very issues that may have contributed to the end of her marriage, although the claims remain the commentator’s personal opinion.
The video generated heated debate among social media users, with followers expressing different views about Iyanaduke’s actions and the influence of her friends. While some agreed that she might benefit from advice encouraging her to maintain her privacy and focus on healing, others argued that she deserves the freedom to express herself following the end of her marriage.
