Nollywood actress and filmmaker Iyabo Ojo said she doesn’t want any part of the feud between colleagues Toyin Abraham and Funke Akindele after she tried unsuccessfully to reconcile them.
Abraham and Akindele reignited their feud at Ojo’s “The Return of Arinzo” premiere last Sunday.
Ojo remarked that the feud has been ongoing after Abraham accused Akindele of trying to sabotage her movie at the box office.
Ojo writing Tuesday on her Instagram social media platform said: ” Now, I need to set the record straight. This is the first and last time I will be talking about anything like this…
“I tried my very best to settle both of them, cried, knelt down, begged both parties to embrace peace which they both later did, reason you saw them a few months ago interacting with one another.”
She explained that the reconciliation came with an understanding that both parties would avoid public disputes and resolve issues privately.
“But unfortunately, in December, Toyin made some complaints about her movie in cinemas claiming some people or person was trying to sabotage her, some fans pointed accusing fingers towards Funke, that sparked up a fresh beef.”
At the event last Sunday Abraham tried to greet Akindele, but she was publicly snubbed by her colleague sparking a storm amongst their fans.
“Honestly, all this saddened me because the sky is big enough for all. I have tried my best, but at this point, I can’t beg anyone anymore. I honestly don’t want to get involved anymore. Please, you all should respect that… when both parties are ready, they will make peace… I love them both regardless.”
