Nollywood star Iyabo Ojo claps back at Tanzanian activist Mange Kimambi for criticising her daughter, Priscilla, and her husband Juma, over their social media presence during Tanzania’s political unrest.
- Mange Kimambi accused Priscilla and Juma of “stupid” distractions amid national protests
- Iyabo Ojo defended her daughter and blasted Kimambi for “audacity.”
- Clarified wedding funding came from Nigerian tradition, not government money
- Told Kimambi to stop “intimidation tactics” from abroad
- Reaffirmed her daughter’s freedom to post whatever she wants
She also questioned Kimambi’s credibility as an activist living in the U.S., criticising her for policing others from afar. The clash stirred debate across Instagram and TikTok. While some applauded Iyabo’s firm stance as a mother, others felt public figures should be open to criticism, especially during sensitive times.
Iyabo Ojo isn’t backing down when it comes to defending her daughter. But the bigger question remains: should celebrity content stay muted during political crises?
