Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has responded fiercely to social media activist Verydarkman, who claimed she backed out of an agreement to publicly apologise to Naira Marley and Sam Larry.
According to Verydarkman, the agreement was reached during a roundtable discussion at the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre, where Iyabo Ojo, Naira Marley, Sam Larry and Tonto Dikeh were present with their legal teams.
Iyabo Ojo dismissed Verydarkman’s claims as manipulative and dishonest, labelling him as cunning and deceitful.
She defended her actions, stating she had genuine reasons to speak out against Naira Marley and Sam Larry’s alleged involvement in the late singer Mohbad’s death.
The mother of two cited disturbing videos and online reports that emerged after Mohbad’s passing, including footage of Sam Larry allegedly mocking the late singer and showing physical assault, which led her to believe the bullying accusations.
“Verydarkman, I saw your video, and I know why you made those videos. I’m sure the NCCC has called to tell you that I’ve petitioned them, so you had to come out and do your normal manipulative tactics.
“I am a very wise woman. I know when to fight, when to listen and when to speak, unlike you who speak from both sides of the mouth and people should stop taking you seriously.
“I was invited by NCCC. I was on my way to Tanzania for Priscilla’s wedding and I saw the letter. I’ve never seen Naira Marley before. I just help promote his songs on my platform.
“I saw a video of Naira Marley dancing after Mohbad’s death. I was angry.
“I also saw Sam Larry’s video where he harassed Zlatan Ibile and Mohbad. That was when I believed the bullying allegations.
As a concerned citizen and mother, I used my platforms,” she said.
