Popular Nollywood actress Lizzy Anjorin in a fiery Instagram live interaction, launched a scathing attack on fans who opted to address her using the Islamic titles she had wholeheartedly embraced as a Muslim.

Lizzy Anjorin who recently made headlines following his online war with Iyabo Ojo highlighted her preference for being hailed by her traditional title, Yeye Mesho.

The actress, in the video, said she has opted to sever connections with Islam and Muslims, having undergone intense online bullying and harassment.

According to her, this decision stems from the perceived lack of backing from fellow Muslim individuals or Islamic organizations during her ordeal.

Lashing out at a fan called Dammy, Lizzy Anjorin said in Yoruba; “Don’t ever call me alhaja or iya adini again, I did not see any Muslim defend me on social media.”

The filmmaker, initially known as a Christian, suddenly became a Muslim about ten years ago.

Lizzy Anjorin, in an Instagram post, said she switched to Islam because pastors refused to help with the burial rites of her mother.

The actress said she had to hurriedly bury her mother because she had asked not to be taken to the mortuary when she died.

“I could remember right from when I was a teenager, my mother used to tell me that she does not want her dead body to be taking to the mortuary when she dies,” Anjorin wrote in an Instagram post.

Anjorin said no less than ten pastors refused to perform the funeral rites because her mother was not a member of their church.
