There were speculations that Funke Akindele shunned the event to avoid any drama with Iyabo Ojo and Toyin Abraham following their long time beef.
In a lengthy post shared on her Instagram page, Iyabo Ojo said there had been rumours that someone she once helped in and outside the Nollywood industry finds great joy in constantly stabbing her and tried all her best to destroy her.
Iyabo Ojo said no human is above or beneath her because everyone is equal in the eyes of God, and she doesn’t pretend nor package anything for anyone.
According to Iyabo Ojo, she does not have any reason to hate anyone because she’s beyond blessed and contented with the little she owns.
Iyabo Ojo added that Funke Akindele should stop forming class or disassociating herself from certain people and avoid bringing people together only when needed.
Although Iyabo Ojo didn’t mention Funke Akindele’s name in the post, many netizens claimed the post was directed to Funke following her absence at Eniola’s party.
