Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has publicly defended her daughter, Priscilla Ojo, after Tanzanian media personality Mange Kimambi criticized Priscilla and her partner Juma Jux for posting content considered distracting ahead of Tanzania’s elections.

Kimambi advised the couple to take a five-month break from social media to avoid public backlash, prompting Iyabo Ojo to respond forcefully on Instagram, condemning the criticism and warning Kimambi to stay away from her daughter.

Iyabo emphasized her daughter’s right to post freely online, highlighting cultural traditions regarding Priscilla’s wedding and dismissing claims about government involvement or financial support.

The incident sparked online discussions between Nigerian and Tanzanian followers regarding personal expression, social media influence, and cross-national respect.
