However, the celebratory atmosphere is juxtaposed with recent controversies surrounding Iyabo Ojo’s behaviour on the reality show, The Real Housewives of Lagos season 2.

The actress had faced criticism for what some labeled as toxic behavior, particularly in a dispute with model Faith Morey.

Responding to the accusations, Iyabo Ojo defended herself by highlighting the editing process of reality shows and explaining that they often shape narratives.

She acknowledged apologizing to Faith Morey privately but faced a public disagreement with the model, who accused her of dishonesty.

Pregnant Laura Ikeji, another participant on the show, publicly criticized Iyabo Ojo, expressing disappointment in her idol and condemning her bullying behaviour.

In response, Iyabo Ojo fired back, accusing Laura of playing the victim and bringing up past issues involving Laura’s sister, blogger Linda Ikeji.

Under pressure, Iyabo Ojo issued public apologies to Faith Morey, Laura Ikeji, and her co-reality stars.

She denounced bullying and acknowledged that her actions may have offended some. In an Instagram live session, Ojo defended her behavior on the show, claiming it was a strategic move to boost ratings.

Subsequently, Ojo criticized the producers of The Real Housewives of Lagos, expressing frustration with their editing choices.

She accused the production team of omitting crucial scenes that led to her outburst, questioning their editing decisions.
