I was raped 5 times – Iyabo Ojo opens up on her traumatic childhood experience, speaks on her father disowning her

Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has made a shocking revelation about her childhood

In an interview with her colleague Biola Bayo for her talk show, Talk to B, she revealed that she was raped 5 times.

Iyabo noted how we have lots of rape apologists as she stated that if her son was accused of being a rapist, she would come for him unapologetically.

Iyabo spoke about how her dad disowned her when she insisted on getting married to her late husband.

She further revealed how her dad ruined his life by being an alcoholic and dealing with drugs, which made him die at the age of 40.

According to Iyabo, she grew up with her grandmother and didn’t know her mother till she was around seven years old.

“I was raped five times in my life. I discovered we have a lot of rape apologists. I don’t care who the person is; if that person is my son, I am going to come for him unapologetically.”

I have never met Naira Marley before my entire life. The only time I lacked was when I insisted this was the man I was going to get married to because, at that time, my dad and I disowned each other.

My dad did everything, alcohol and drugs, so it messed him up at a young age. He died at 40.

I grew up with my grandmother, who is half Delta and half Igbo. I think I was seven before I knew my mother
