Iyabo Ojo reacts after EFCC grills her over money spraying at daughter’s wedding

Actress Iyabo Ojo has broken her silence following her invitation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over money-spraying at her daughter’s lavish wedding.

In a statement posted to her Instagram, Iyabo confirmed she visited the EFCC office on May 5th after returning from the UK. According to her, officials questioned her about her background, career, and activities surrounding the viral wedding celebration.

She said EFCC officers showed her videos of guests spraying both Naira and foreign currencies at the event. When asked if she was aware this was illegal, Iyabo responded:

“I thought only abuse or mutilation of the Naira was an offense.”

To her surprise, EFCC officials clarified that spraying any currency—Naira or otherwise—is prohibited by law in Nigeria.

Though she was released the same day, Iyabo’s lawyer stood in for her, just in case she’s called in again.

She ended her note with a warning to fellow Nigerians:

“Perhaps it’s time to reconsider this long-standing tradition. Let’s prioritize caution and avoid any potential problems.”
