Iyabo Ojo, Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, has tendered an apology to the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria.
This comes days after TAMPAN warned her over her social media comments regarding the ongoing sexual assault trial of Baba Ijesha.
Iyabo Ojo had on several occasions taken to her social media page to air her opinion on the case.
On Thursday, Iyabo Ojo shared a live session video which had Bolaji Amusan, TAMPAN president in attendance, on her Instagram page.
She further captioned the video with her apology. She wrote, “I would like to say thank you to @esabodofficialpage. God bless you ma, Agba yin a dale. I so much appreciate you mama & Love you.
“First & foremost, I want to appreciate God almighty, all mercifully, I love you Lord & I thank you for your constant protection, provision and guidance over me & my family. I’m forever grateful.”
Iyabo Ojo continued, “I will also want to use this opportunity to say a very BIG thank you to all my darling fans and loved ones for your constant love & support … honestly I’m so overwhelmed & humbled, I will never take it for granted.
“To an able & ever-humble president of Tampan @mrlatin1510 thank you very much, sir. Our big daddies @adebayo.salami @princejidekosoko @realyinkaquadri, on behalf of @nkechiblessingsunday my darling aburo & my humble self, we apologise to you sirs. We’re sorry for getting you upset. You’re our elders & leaders; we respect you, we’re humbled before you, we will forever appreciate you & honour you🙏🏽 it’s all Peace & Love.”
Mr Latin, during the Instagram live chat, said“If a person has 100 cows in his care and one goes astray, the person will go and look for the stray cow as a good leader. So, I cannot neglect Iyabo, neither can I do the same thing for Nkechi. Where she had offended has been amended.
“As leaders and elders, we have to embrace them more for things to go on peacefully. The improvement of our industry is what is paramount to us.”
