Popular Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has left Tanzania after weeks of caring for her daughter, Priscilla Ojo, who recently welcomed a baby boy. The actress’s departure marks the end of her traditional Omugwo duties, which she proudly described as a “mission accomplished.”
Iyabo Ojo, who had been by Priscilla’s side since her delivery in Canada, travelled with her daughter to Tanzania for the baby’s 40-day naming ceremony. The event was reportedly attended by close friends, family members, and fellow Nollywood stars, including Toyin Abraham.
A viral video shared online captured the emotional moment the actress prepared to leave Tanzania after completing her grandmotherly duties. Fans flooded the comment section with prayers and admiration, praising her devotion to her daughter and grandchild.
One user, @i_am_dinmaa, commented: “Queen Mother, may you live long enough to enjoy every fruit of your labour over and over again.” Another, @esuwemimo, wrote: “I know that must be difficult. You’ve done so well. They will soon come to visit you.”
Several fans also reacted playfully to her exit, referencing her long-running online feud with content creator VeryDarkMan (VDM). @its_vic_n_joseph joked: “Yes oo, come back home because VDM has been waiting for you, case continues.”
Others expressed admiration for the emotional bond between mother and daughter. @officialitrendycreatives wrote: “If na me, I go cry for one month. I can’t do without my mum.”
Iyabo’s daughter Priscilla, a popular influencer and brand ambassador, has kept fans updated on her motherhood journey, sharing glimpses from the lavish naming ceremony and family moments in Tanzania.
Earlier, Iyabo had made headlines during the baby shower when she gave an emotional speech about her daughter’s strength and the importance of family support. Her remarks stirred mixed reactions online, particularly amid ongoing criticism from some social media users.
As the actress returns to Nigeria, fans continue to celebrate her new title as “Glamma” (glamorous grandmother), with many describing her as “one of the most stylish and devoted mothers in Nollywood.”
