Popular Nollywood actors, Iyabo Ojo has taken to her Instagram account to condemn the purported release of Baba Ijesha who allegedly defiled a teenager and was subsequently arrested.
According to reports, a directive had been given for the release of Baba Ijesha from custody.

In her reaction, Iyabo Ojo said in an instagram live video that Baba Ijesha shouldn’t be released with all the glaring evidences.
“If they release Baba Ijesha with all the evidence they have and with the video that I saw with my eyes, then I will know Nigeria has a serious problem.If they release Baba Ijesha, we will re-arrest Baba Ijesha”, she noted.
Recounting how the incident happened,popular comedienne Princess, who is the foster mother of the allegedly molested teenager said : “I asked him, Lanre, what did I do to you. Because you know I do not have a child, people kept these children in my care so that I will not over-think and you did this to me. He said that I was his benefactor but it was the devil. He was just talking rubbish. I asked him what happened seven years ago but he was just begging me. They took him away. Every day we go to the police station from morning till night. Ever since it happened I cannot sleep. Some people called trying to threaten me.”
