In a powerful statement aimed at critics and online commentators, Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has addressed the growing whispers that her daughter is destined to follow in her footsteps and end up divorced. “I’ve read so many people and blogs saying my daughter will end up like me, a divorced woman,” Ojo said, unflinchingly. “Honestly, I don’t have much to say to you all, because none of you truly know what happened between me and my ex-husband.” Ojo, a veteran in Nigeria’s film industry and no stranger to public scrutiny, didn’t hold back as she reminded the public that celebrity marriages are far from easy. "We go through a lot, but because we’re in the public eye, we try to keep things looking perfect. But for how long? Must someone kpai in a marriage just to prove a point?” She revealed that despite their best efforts, walking away from her marriage was the “wiser choice.” But her main message was for those dragging her daughter into the narrative. “As for my daughter, she has her own journey. I can guide her, but I won’t live her life for her,” she stated firmly. “For those waiting for her to divorce, well, you might need to wait forever. She’s not me, and her story will be different.” With grace and grit, Ojo has made it clear: her past is not her daughter's prophecy.
