The veteran Nollywood actress, in a recent interview on Oyinmomo TV, explained her long absence from the screen, which spanned more than a decade. Her disappearance had puzzled fans and left social media users speculating about her whereabouts and well-being.

In a candid revelation, Moji confirmed that her blacklisting came as a result of rejecting sexual advances from influential film marketers. According to her, they conspired against her, effectively cutting off her career opportunities because she refused to compromise her values.

“Before now, marketers used to give producers money to work. But because I refused their sexual advances, they held a meeting among themselves and agreed not to call me for work,” she disclosed. Her voice, though calm, carried the weight of over ten years of professional exile and injustice.

Moji revealed that the exchange of sexual favours for movie roles is far more common than people realise. She alleged that even married actresses have taken part in such acts, often bringing their husbands to wait outside while they negotiated behind closed doors.

“I did not sleep with any of them because I can’t trade my body for films. It’s my principle. I know they will watch this interview. Many of those doing it will go with their husbands and have them wait outside while they go inside to meet marketers. I’m exposing their secrets now,” she said directly.

The Moji Afolayan blacklisting scandal now paints a clearer picture of how Nollywood’s golden faces are often chosen not solely on talent but through unethical gatekeeping. She added that many of these actresses became popular not through merit but through these behind-the-scenes dealings.

“Marketers made them stars. Their posters were all around. But I thank God that I stood with my dignity. That is what I am enjoying today,” she said. Despite the toll it took on her finances and visibility, she has no regrets about her decision. Her dignity and values, she insisted, came first.

She acknowledged that the punishment from the marketers was severe and did affect her livelihood. Still, she remains proud of her choice. “They denied me movie roles because I didn’t offer myself for sex. Although it affected my income and fame, but I cherish my body more than every other thing. Even my husband knows.”

Moji also noted a shift in how Nollywood operates today, with content creators having more independence through digital platforms. YouTube and other social media outlets have enabled producers and actors to bypass marketers entirely.

“They now know how it feels because they have made us social media friendly. We now pushed our movies on YouTube without any marketers,” she concluded. Her words carried the satisfaction of someone who endured injustice but eventually found a way to survive and speak out.

The Moji Afolayan blacklisting scandal has started to trend online as more viewers discover the harsh realities hidden behind Nollywood’s glamour. Her courage has sparked conversations around dignity, exploitation, and the true price of fame.

At 57, and still married to her fellow actor Ojopagogo, Moji’s return to public life is not just about reclaiming her space in the industry. It is a bold declaration that silence will no longer be accepted, and that the fight for dignity and fairness in Nollywood must continue.

Lizzy Anjorin Questions Court Order Over Priscilla Ojo’s Son

Published

on

Nollywood actress Lizzy Anjorin has questioned the authenticity of an interim order issued by the Lagos State High Court on 2 September 2026, restraining her from publishing photographs of Priscilla Ojo’s one-year-old son, Rakeem Mkambala, and from posting editorials concerning the family on specified social media platforms.

Anjorin raised the issue during an Instagram Live session on Friday, 4 September, after Priscilla shared a copy of the court order online.

The actress argued that publicising court documents before formally serving the respondent undermines the case.

“Your case na dead on arrival. If you post court letter on any platform before serving person wey you wan go serve, that court case na fake court case,” Anjorin said during the live session.

Her comments came shortly after the High Court of Lagos State granted an ex parte application brought by Priscilla, her husband, Tanzanian singer Juma Mussa Mkambala, and their son, Rakeem.

Justice Yetunde Adesanya issued the interim order in Suit No. LD/ADR/6646/2026.

The order restrains Anjorin, as well as people acting under her authority, from publishing, posting, circulating, uploading or broadcasting photographs of Rakeem on specified social media platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and TikTok.

The court also directed Anjorin to cease publishing or broadcasting editorials concerning the applicants on the platforms covered by the order.

An ex parte order is made at an interim stage without the respondent being heard. The order is therefore not a final determination of the dispute and remains subject to further proceedings.

Priscilla shared the certified copy of the order on her Instagram Story on Friday, bringing the legal development into public view.

Anjorin’s reaction centres on the timing and manner in which the court documents were publicised. Her assertion that such publication makes a case “fake” is her own claim and is not a finding contained in the court order.

The development marks another chapter in the prolonged public dispute between Anjorin and Priscilla’s family, particularly Priscilla’s mother, actress Iyabo Ojo.

The disagreement has played out largely on social media and has previously resulted in legal action, including a ₦1 billion defamation suit filed by Iyabo Ojo against Anjorin.

In recent weeks, the dispute has also drawn Priscilla and her young son into the controversy, following public comments by Anjorin concerning the family.

BBNaija Kess Says Big Brother Makes Life Harder

Published

on

Kesiena Tony Adjekpovu, popularly known as Kess, has said that participating in Big Brother Naija can make life harder, offering a candid reflection on the challenges that may come with the reality television experience.

The former Big Brother Naija housemate made the comment in a statement shared on social media, where he suggested that winning or simply taking part in the reality show does not necessarily make life easier after leaving the house.

“Big Brother makes your life harder,” Kess said.

The remark has drawn attention because life after reality television can bring a different set of expectations, particularly as former housemates adjust to increased public attention and the pressure that can accompany visibility.

Kess was a housemate on the seventh season of Big Brother Naija, which aired in 2022. He entered the show as a businessman and was among the contestants who competed for the season’s grand prize.

His time on the programme also placed him in the public eye, giving viewers an opportunity to follow his personality and relationships inside the house.

Kess’s latest comment offers a more reflective view of the reality TV platform, suggesting that the experience does not end when a contestant leaves the house.

However, he did not provide further details in the available post explaining which specific aspects of life after Big Brother he was referring to.
