Popular actress Iyabo Ojo has reacted to claims by Isaac, younger brother of former Ekiti Governor, Ayodele Fayose on the alleged dwindling service of her restaurant.

Recently, a video captured Fayose complain about being served three bones for N7,000 for a plate pepper soup.

He displayed the bowl of pepper soup, asking his fans if they’d pay the given amount for such a dish.

He also claimed that he sent the video to his cousin, Toyin Lawani, and asked her to speak to her friend.

He alleged their service was declining, claiming to have been a regular consumer for one year but had never experienced such.

Fayose noted the movie star eventually called him and lashed at him, called him poor, accused him of chasing clout before ending the call abruptly.

Reacting in an Instagram live video, Ojo stated ‘her hand was forced to reply’ basically for two reasons.

“I really wanted to ignore this but I noticed a lot of people have been tagging me regarding the video Isaac Fayose made about my restaurant. I just want to clear the air for two reasons. One, for my darling customers and two, for those (my fans) who feel I need to address it,” the mother of two began.

She accused Fayose of attempting to ‘sabotage her business’ and ‘demanding compensation’ when he had already taken his pound of flesh.

Ojo explained after Toyin Lawani sent the video made by Fayose of his pepper soup that was delivered to him from her restaurant, she called her manager and supervisor to reach out and apologise to him, ensuring they also get his details for a refund or ask him if he’d like a complimentary dish.

She claimed while all that was ongoing, several persons sent her same video via Whatsapp and told her Fayose shared it on his status.

According to Ojo, she became enraged that he still wanted their complimentary package and an apology after taking his pound of flesh by sharing the video on his Whatsapp status for all his contacts to see.

She accused him of attempting to ruin her business wondering why he shared the video when plans were already ongoing to redress the situation.

The actress who made the revelation in a Snapchat video on Sunday, stated that she stopped going to church because attention often shifted to her rather than the service.

While explaining that she’s always the one they take pictures of, the actress said she now joins church service online.

Akindele said “Anytime I go to church, I am always the one they take pictures of. So I will join online.”

Recall that in 2022, Akindele openly identified herself with the Celestial Church of Christ.

“Every time I have challenges I go to the Celestial church quietly at night for solutions. But I have to stop hiding and publicly identify with the church”, she said.

Popular Nigerian content creator, Shank has stirred reactions online after opening up about a personal clash with his mother over tattoos, while also revealing a fresh body ink linked to his “Lit Gang” identity.

The revelation surfaced in a recent viral video shared on his social platforms, where he recounted the moment he tattooed his mother’s name, “Oluremi,” on his arm.

According to him, what he expected to be an emotional moment quickly turned tense.

“The day I tattooed my mum’s name on my arm, she started crying and quoting Bible,” Shank said.

He explained that his mother strongly opposed the act, citing religious reasons and warning him against marking his body.

“She told me, ‘did I ask you to draw my name? I don’t like it. Don’t do tattoo again. God said don’t mark your body,’” he recalled.

Shank, however, said he challenged her stance by pointing out what he described as a contradiction.

“I asked her, if you say I should leave my body the way God created it, why do you shave your hair? You that shave hair and me that draw tattoo, we are committing the same sin,” he added.

The content creator used the moment to advise young people navigating similar situations with parents, stressing the importance of independence when making personal decisions.

“Just make sure you’re independent before doing what your parents are not comfortable with,” he said.

Amid the conversation, Shank also unveiled a new tattoo on his back with the inscription “Lit Gang,” a move that has further fueled reactions among fans.

While some social media users backed his arguement on personal choice and self-expression, others sided with his mother, citing cultural and religious concerns about body markings.

The development has continued to generate debate online, highlighting the growing tension between traditional beliefs and modern youth culture in Nigeria’s entertainment space.
