Ojo confirmed her invitation by the EFCC in a public statement, stating that it was related to the spraying of both Naira and foreign currencies at the wedding.

Popular actress and filmmaker Iyabo Ojo, along with comedian Ayo Makun, better known as AY, were recently invited for questioning by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The invitations followed reports of money spraying at Ojo’s daughter’s wedding. Both individuals were later granted bail under stringent conditions.


Ojo confirmed her invitation by the EFCC in a public statement, stating that it was related to the spraying of both Naira and foreign currencies at the wedding.

The actress explained that during her visit to the EFCC office on May 5, 2025, she was questioned about various aspects of her personal and professional life, including her career and businesses.

In an Instagram post, Ojo elaborated on the details of her interaction with the EFCC, clarifying that she had not been arrested but was questioned about the wedding video, where guests, including friends and colleagues, were seen spraying money.

She noted that while she believed only the mutilation of Naira currency was illegal, the EFCC officials informed her that spraying any currency—whether Naira or foreign—is prohibited.

Ojo wrote in an Instagram post: “Following the recent media publication on social media and numerous calls and texts messages from different quarters seeking to hear from me on the EFCC invitation and to ascertain my welfare, I find it expedient to release this briefing.

“I recently had an experience with the EFCC in Nigeria after receiving an invitation letter while I was in the UK. Upon my return, I visited the EFCC on the 5th day of May 2025, where I was asked several questions relating to my personal bio data, career, work experience, and companies, amongst others.

“The EFCC officials showed me videos extracted from my daughter's wedding where guests, including colleagues and friends, were spraying Naira and foreign currencies.

“I was asked if I knew this was illegal, and I explained that I thought only abuse or mutilation of the Naira was an offense.

Meanwhile, SaharaReporters earlier reported that popular social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, widely known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), underwent a second day of interrogation on Tuesday at the EFCC headquarters, in connection with his recent public criticism of the agency.

SaharaReporters learnt that VDM, known for his outspoken views on national issues, was being questioned over comments he made accusing the EFCC of corruption.

The interrogation session, which lasted several hours, was attended by his legal representative, Barrister Marvin Omorogbe from Deji Adeyanju’s law firm.

According to sources familiar with the matter, the session focused primarily on Otse’s social media posts and videos in which he alleged deep-rooted corruption within the anti-graft commission.

“Barrister Omorogbe arrived at the EFCC office at 10 a.m. and remained there until 3 p.m.,” a source told SaharaReporters.

However, efforts to secure bail for his client were unsuccessful by the time Omorogbe left the EFCC premises at 3 p.m.



One of his lawyers, Adeyanju, confirmed to SaharaReporters around 5.40 p.m. on Tuesday that VDM had yet to be released on bail, noting that they were “working on it”.

VDM’s continued detention has sparked conversations online, with supporters calling for his immediate release and critics of the EFCC questioning the agency’s tolerance for dissent.
