“Since the announcement, there has been drama back-to-back, just for one aim: ruin her plans, but God is stronger than man,” she wrote, adding that the film would perform strongly.

Priscilla argued that her mother remains misunderstood, noting that critics distort narratives whether Iyabo Ojo chooses silence or speaks out.

She assured her mother of unwavering support from her fan base and loyal followers.

The Priscilla Ojo defends Iyabo Ojo narrative gained traction as tensions within the industry resurfaced during the film’s premiere.

She described her relationship with the individual in question as strictly supportive and professional.

Despite the distractions, Priscilla expressed confidence that the film’s strong reception at its premiere reflected public goodwill towards her mother.

She described the project as a “masterpiece” and urged supporters to focus on its release.
