Iyabo Ojo faced backlash after a viral video showed Funke appearing to ignore Toyin at the premiere of her film, The Return of Arinzo. Many social media users questioned why she did not step in, given her close relationship with both actresses.
Responding to the controversy, Iyabo explained that she had reached out to both parties in an effort to broker peace, noting that the reconciliation process eventually broke down. Despite this, critics accused her of taking sides.
In a lengthy Instagram post on Thursday, Priscilla expressed frustration over what she described as unfair attacks on her mother, particularly since the announcement of the movie.
She suggested that a pattern of controversies had been deliberately created to distract from or undermine the film’s success.
Priscilla also criticised how her mother’s actions are interpreted, saying she is often misunderstood whether she chooses to remain silent or speak out.
Highlighting Iyabo’s character, she pointed to the strong turnout at the movie premiere as proof of the actress’s positive influence and support for others in the industry.
She further noted that her mother frequently defends others both publicly and privately, but does not always receive the same support in return.
Priscilla concluded by expressing confidence in the success of The Return of Arinzo, urging supporters to remain focused and undeterred by distractions.
