Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, on Thursday, has tendered her unreserved apology to the committee of Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN) following the controversy surrounding Baba’s Ijesha rape saga.

Newsflash Nigeria had earlier reported that TAMPAN, in its notice suspending Iyabo Ojo and Nkechi Blessing, accused the actresses of “reckless accusations, abuses and embarrassment of our sector”.

This comes after the actresses consistently via their social media platform condemned the conduct of their colleague, Olanrewaju Omiyinka, popularly called Baba Ijesha, who allegedly defiled the foster daughter of Nigerian comedienne, Princess.

Their decision has since been met with criticisms and knocks from celebrities as well as the parties affected.

However, the mother of two via her social media (Instagram) pleaded with the leadership of TAMPAM to forgive her wrongs.

She wrote; “I would like to say a very big thank you to @esabodofficialpage … God bless you ma, Agba yin a dale … I so much appreciate you, mama, & Love you…

“First & foremost I want to say a very BIG thank you to my God almighty, all mercifully, I love you Lord & I thank you for your constant protection, provision and guidance over me & my family.

“I’m forever grateful… i will also want to use this opportunity to say a very BIG thank you to all my darling fans and loved ones for your constant love & support … honestly I’m so overwhelmed & humbled, I will never take it for granted

“To an able & ever humble president of Tampan… @mrlatin1510 thank you very much sir…

“Our big daddies @adebayo.salami @princejidekosoko @realyinkaquadri on behalf of @nkechiblessingsunday my darling aburo & my humble self, we apologise to you sir we’re sorry for getting you upset, you’re our elders & leaders, we respect you, we’re humbled before you, we will forever appreciate you & honour you… it’s all Peace & Love”
