“I’m a very wise woman, I know when to fight” — Iyabo Ojo slams Verydarkman

Actress Iyabo Ojo has responded fiercely to claims made by social media activist Verydarkman, who alleged she backed out of an agreement to publicly apologise to Naira Marley and Sam Larry.

Her rebuttal comes hours after Verydarkman shared details of a roundtable discussion at the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre (NPF NCCC) held with Naira Marley, Sam Larry, Iyabo Ojo, Tonto Dikeh, and their legal teams, claiming Iyabo had promised to apologise publicly for accusing Naira Marley and Sam Larry of involvement in Mohbad’s death but later reneged.

In a new live TikTok session, Iyabo dismissed Verydarkman’s narrative as manipulative and dishonest, calling him “corny” and “deceitful.”

“So you had to come out and do your normal manipulating tactic. I’m a very wise woman. I’m not like you that’s very deceitful and corny. You’ve tried in all your might to bring me down, but you cannot,” she said.

Iyabo defended her actions, stating she had genuine reasons to speak out at the time. She explained that her reaction was driven by disturbing videos and online reports that emerged after Mohbad died in 2023.

“I used to promote Naira Marley’s songs until Mohbad died. I saw a video of Naira Marley dancing after Mohbad’s death, I was angry,” she stated.

She went further to describe seeing videos of Sam Larry allegedly mocking the late singer and others showing physical assault, which she said compelled her to believe the bullying accusations.

“I saw Sam Larry’s video where he accosted Zlatan Ibile and Mohbad; that was when I believed the bullying allegation. As a concerned citizen and a mother, I used my platforms,” she explained.
