Nollywood actress and businesswoman Iyabo Ojo has publicly dismissed allegations that a recent court injunction obtained by her daughter, Priscilla Ojo, against Lizzy Anjorin is fraudulent. Taking to social media, the screen diva urged critics and doubting Thomases to verify the document’s authenticity themselves, emphasizing that court records are public properties.
The Controversy Surrounding the Court Injunction
The dispute stems from an interim injunction issued by a Lagos High Court on September 2. The legal order restrains Lizzy Anjorin Lawal from publishing, sharing, or broadcasting any images or content related to Priscilla Ojo, her husband Juma Mussa Mkambala, and their young son, Rakeem Mkambala, across all social media platforms.
Following Priscilla’s public sharing of the legal document, Lizzy Anjorin countered by claiming the court order was fake. This assertion sparked a heated debate online, prompting Iyabo Ojo to step in and clear the air.

In a strongly-worded statement, Iyabo Ojo advised her followers not to fall prey to narratives pushed by online agitators. She clarified that her platform has no room for falsehood, explaining that legal documents are open to public verification.
“You can verify,” Iyabo asserted, encouraging the public to demand actual proof from those claiming the court document is fake rather than believing mere hearsay. She labeled detractors as “miscreants” who are only interested in generating unnecessary social media drama.
On Activism and Having No Regrets
Beyond the legal battle, Iyabo Ojo reflected on her life choices, stating that she has never viewed herself solely as an actress. She defined activism as an inseparable part of her identity, acknowledging that her outspoken nature is often the reason she and her family attract unwarranted hostility.
Despite the backlash, the mother of two maintained she has no regrets. She emphasized that she will always stand on the side of justice and protect her family from cyberbullying and defamation.
A Look Back at Happier Times
The bitter feud between Iyabo Ojo and Lizzy Anjorin has surprised many Nollywood fans, especially given their history. Recently, an old video resurfaced online showing a warm, joyful moment between the two actresses at a public event, where Lizzy was seen spraying money on a dancing Iyabo.
The throwback clip has left fans wondering how two colleagues who once shared such camaraderie ended up in a fierce legal battle. For now, the legal restraint remains active as the parties navigate their ongoing dispute.
