Satr actress, Iyabo Ojo, has addressed the sour issue between her and fellow screen goddess, Funke Akindele.
According to her, both have been trying to unblock each other on Instagram but this has not been possible.
She says this in response to a troll who wonders why she wished Funke a glowing Happy Birthday when she has allegedly refused to follow her back on IG.
Their relationship became strained over a comment on a film released by their contemporary, Toyin Abrahams, which a critic lampooned.
Iyabo fought Funke over this but she says things are no more sour between them.
Joining her colleagues to celebrate her, Iyabo Ojo surprised many when she took to her Instagram page to shower love on the birthday girl.
She wrote:
“FLY HIGH BIRTHDAY GIRL….
MORE BLESSINGS MORE SUCCESS MORE WINS.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATE”.
However, her post didn’t sit well with some of her fans as they felt she was faking her love for the actress.
The troll identified as tscents questioned why the mum of two would celebrate her when she doesn’t follow Funke Akindele on social media.
“You too like Oju aye.
Somebody you’re not following why post her on your page ma?”
Firing back, Iyabo Ojo revealed that she and Funke have been trying to unblock themselves on social media since they resolved their fight.
However, the new standard set by IG has made it difficult for the actresses to unblock each other.
“ODE ODUGBO…..
FUNKE & I BLOCKED OURSELVES AND WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO UNBLOCK EACH OTHER.
IF YOU’RE WELL INFORMED YOU WILL KNOW THAT IG AS MADE ITS DIFFICULT TO UNBLOCK EACH OTHER EACH OTHER ONCE YOU BOTH BLOCK EACH OTHER…
WISDOM IS PROFITABLE TO DIRECT.”
