Woman blames Iyabo Ojo for Funke-Toyin drama
Identified on Facebook as Roberta Edu, the woman took to social media to share her reasons for blaming Iyabo Ojo.
She mentioned what the actress would have done while inviting Funke and Toyin to her movie premiere.
She wrote in her Facebook post:
"I blame Iyabo Ojo for the Funke–Toyin fracas. If you’re going to bring the queen of an industry to your event, you must protect her from crises. You know how overbearing Toyin can be.
"You should have warned her ahead of time: please don’t get close to Funke, and don’t greet her unless she reacts to you first. It costs millions to bring Funke to any event. Many people want her at their events but can’t have her.
"If she agrees to support you, don’t abuse the opportunity. Protect the queen of the industry, don’t let dirt reach her because of you."
