She stated that the past few months have been focused on welcoming her grandson, supporting her daughter Priscilla in her journey through motherhood, and safeguarding her family’s wellbeing.

“I’ve seen all your DMs, voice notes, and questions about my silence despite all the defamatory statements, insults, death wishes, and curses aimed at my family, especially my grandson. Honestly, I struggle to hold my peace, but sometimes silence is necessary. Who God has blessed, no one can curse,” she wrote.

Iyabo emphasised that her lawyers are documenting all the allegations, assuring fans that the issue will be properly addressed upon her return to Lagos.

The actress also thanked her supporters for their messages and concern, encouraging them to stay patient until the appropriate time.
