In other news, Iyabo Ojo thinks she’s fighting a deep spiritual war against "detractors," but turns out it’s just a fashion betrayal! Her ₦5M custom dress got snitched and sold to a musician for double the price. Forget juju, she's just mad her designer ghosted her!

In other news, Iyabo Ojo has made it clear that she is not the one to be caught sleeping when people are plotting.

The Nollywood actress recently shared a cryptic post on her Instagram page, addressing those she says are secretly plotting against her. "I'm aware my detractors are plotting. I'm solidly on ground!" she wrote. She added that her eyes are seeing "crooked plans and camouflaged visits" and her ears are hearing "the silent whisperings." 

(shines eyes like Toyin Abraham)

She also told her fans that despite how far falsehood may travel, the truth shall catch up with it one day. The post comes at a tense time for her family, following backlash her daughter Priscilla Ojo faced from Tanzanian netizens over husband Juma Jux's weight loss. 

(shakes head like Lizzy Anjorin)

But here is what the blogs did not tell you.

The real reason Iyabo is so worked up about "camouflaged visits" is not because she is being plotted against. It is because she paid a famous designer ₦5 million to sew a custom gown for her daughter's upcoming movie premiere, but the designer sold the cloth to an international musician who offered double the price. Iyabo only found out when she saw the musician wearing the exact same design on Instagram. She has been calling the designer for a week, but he has been dodging her calls. She is not fighting a spiritual war, she is fighting a fashion betrayal. 

Edgar doesn't lie.

Source: One of the designer's assistants, Fola Agoro, who saw the payment and confirmed the musician paid ₦10 million for the same cloth.
