Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has hit out at her colleagues defending comedian Baba Ijesha who was last week arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl, Igbere TV reports.

Baba Ijesha, born Olarenwaju Omiyinka, according to the police, had been assaulting the teenager since she was seven.

In a video uploaded to Instagram on Sunday, the 43-year-old noted that she had seen social media posts from her colleagues defending Baba Ijesha and urged them to stop.

She captioned the post:

“Please let’s be mindful in my industry. This is a very sensitive issue and we should all remember that a 14-year-old child is involved. She is watching the Internet. If you can’t support or help her don’t hurt her the more. Thank You.”

Announcing Baba Ijesha’s arrest in a statement last week, Lagos police spokesman Olumuyiwa Adejobi alleged that the actor had been sexually assaulting the teenager since she was seven.

The statement reads: “The Lagos State Police Command has arrested one Olarenwaju James ‘male’ 48, aka Baba Ijesha, popular Nollywood actor for defiling a minor.

“The case of defilement was reported on 19th April, 2021 by one Princess Adekola Adekanya ‘female’ at Sabo Police Station and transferred to the Gender Unit of the State CID, Panti, Yaba Lagos for proper investigation.

“Based on preliminary findings, the suspect started sexually assaulting the victim, 14 years, since she was seven years old. The suspect confessed to the crime and was also captured by a CCTV camera in the house of the complainant.”

Actresses Tonto Dikeh and Biodun Okeowo, alias Omoborty, have called for severe punishment for Baba Ijesha if he is found guilty of sexually harassing the girl.

Meanwhile, fellow actress and self-confessed rape survivor Foluke Daramola has deleted an Instagram post in which she endorsed a statement by actor Yomi Fabiyi that it is malicious to conclude that Baba Ijesha is guilty without trial.

A MOTHER,A QUEEN AND A WOMAN!!!!
I love when people say it as it is.

Don't support evil, don't sit on the fence.
He committed the crime and should face the consequences.

I love this lady too much.

those yeyebrities supporting that pedo are sick empty airheads

Hmmmmm.
Ok

Madam Sharap....because I dey look you since I no talk.

For you to have been raped 5 times shows there's something wrong with you. 5 different times men raped you? Like you're the only woman in existence.

1. It's either you had a very indecent way of dressing;
2. You were a spoilt brat;
3. You've been exposed to immorality at a young age and you became a bitch

I'm not a supporter of rape but you? Even your lifestyle tells it all and we just hope it doesn't pass to Priscilla so Sharap and let the law take it's due course

Crime doesn't pay....see as all em ladies dey bash the guy anyhow.

He messed up his life by himself and for himself

Make them carry am go court Asap and tender all the evidence and just sentence the man to death....

Don't mind them.

Most of them are coded pedophiles.

The most annoying thing about this is playing the tribal card,which is what is trending in Nigeria today.

We now hear our own thief,rapist and terrorist. Once the culprit is from our tribe we downplay the magnitude of the crime committed.

Nigeria will get better when we come out to rebuke even our own tribesmen.

What is bad is bad

Nigeria is on fire

It sickening, can't comprehend why some people will defend a serial pedophile.

The country is on fire already, we have too many issues one ground, so the man should be prosecuted if found guilty, that's all.

Shes angry becasue ahead was a victim...

.would she think otherwise if she wasn't...

Humans with sentimental stands.

some men don't just have sense.. if shuku shuku dey worry u.. Kukuma go hold go meet ashawo than to goan continue disgracing yourself for 8 years.. he should pray he's not guilty..

Nawa o. Ontop wetin.

Who go come solve the matter

The Courts will .

Those defending him are his partner in crime. Nemesis will catch up with them all.

Can you see that all the celebrities coming out to condemn Baba Ijesha's act are females? All the men are scared to come out because they are no different from Baba Ijesha.
They are all guilty of this same crime theirs may be maybe not with minors but they are all guilty. May God continue to protect us all.

Exactly my point.

I honestly feel there’s more to this rape story..

I mean a 7 year old kid, living with a mother is going thru a sexual trauma and the said mother didn’t know until she turned 14years?

The kid never complain of any form of pain?

She didn’t observe anything while bathing the kid?

The mother needs to be questioned - there’s surely more to the story and what my mind is telling me is that the mother is very much aware, right from the beginning..

I refused to believe the mother won’t be aware of this scenario until kid turned 14..

Learned some people were trying to make it a tribal thing because of what a nollywood actress said. What has tribe
got to do wirh child abuse? What if the child were to be your own, would you accept it or allow it to be swept under the carpet? Let there be justice for the alleged victim.

Let it not be a social media trial and verdict.

Only deranged and small-minded people defend evil, confirmed or not, be it for sentimental or naive or irrational reasons

Baba ijesha happen to be my best Yoruba actor ever, but when it comes to RAPE.... i don't care who is involve
Justice must be served

If found guilty the pedophile should be incarcerated kiakia

See as iyabo look like an old woman... Let her paint and shade up now... Age iand body count is catching up.

Seriously, baba ijesha deserves what's coming his way and much more... What pleasure is in fingerling, smoothing or even sexing a 14yrs old not to talk of a 7yrs old. I give no Bleep about what happen to him

Calm down ma'am. Let the police do their work. That's what we are all waiting for too. SM judgement has no bearing in real life.

What did an adult sees in a seven years old child?

Bed of a feather
