Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, has apologized to TAMPAN following her suspension over Baba Ijesha’s scandal.
Actor Baba Ijesha was arrested and is being tried for the alleged rape case of a 14-year-old girl.
Recall that the Theatre Arts Motion and Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN) had issued a ban and threats to Nollywood actresses, Iyabo Ojo and Nkechi Blessing, some days ago.
The leaders and representatives of the organisation, Bolaji Amusan, Jide Kosoko and Adebayo Salami, released a video where they accused these actresses of their unending abuses to the guild and bringing embarrassment to the industry.
Iyabo Ojo took to her Instagram page to share a recorded video of a live chat with the chairman of TAMPAN and another individual. In her caption, she showed her appreciated and offered her apology to the guild.
In the recorded live chat, Mr Latin forgave the actresses using the popular ‘shepherd and his sheep’ proverb.
In his words, “If a person has 100 cows in his care and one goes astray, the person will go and look for the stray cow as a good leader. So, I cannot neglect Iyabo, neither can I do the same thing for Nkechi. Where she had offended has been amended.
“As leaders and elders, we have to embrace them more for things to go on peacefully. The improvement of our industry is what is paramount to us.”
She wrote, “I would like to say thank you to @esabodofficialpage. God bless you ma, Agba yin a dale. I so much appreciate you mama & Love you.
“First & foremost, I want to appreciate God almighty, all mercifully, I love you Lord & I thank you for your constant protection, provision and guidance over me & my family. I’m forever grateful.”
She continued, “I will also want to use this opportunity to say a very BIG thank you to all my darling fans and loved ones for your constant love & support … honestly I’m so overwhelmed & humbled, I will never take it for granted.
“To an able & ever-humble president of Tampan @mrlatin1510 thank you very much, sir. Our big daddies @adebayo.salami @princejidekosoko @realyinkaquadri, on behalf of @nkechiblessingsunday my darling aburo & my humble self, we apologise to you sirs. We’re sorry for getting you upset.
“You’re our elders & leaders; we respect you, we’re humbled before you, we will forever appreciate you & honour you. It’s all Peace & Love.”
