Just these two actresses, Lizzy Anjorin and Iyabo could tell
if there had been an issue between them previously but to the public, an unpleasant
incident that played out between them seven years ago signified beginning of
their quarrel that was based on age.
Seven years ago,
Lizzy and Iyabo had come to support one of their own, Tayo Odueke, otherwise
known as Sikirat Sindodo, who was having a movie premiere at The Event Centre,
Ikeja, when the scene took place. Trouble reportedly started when Lizzy tried
to exchange pleasantries with Iyabo and others around. The process was said to
have been smooth until it got to the turn of Iyabo, who was said to have rebuffed
Lizzy for daring to refer to her by her first name when in her own estimation,
she felt she deserved to be respected because she was older and at the same
time a senior colleague to Lizzy in the industry. Without hesitation, Lizzy was
said to have given it to Iyabo in her own coin and a scene was created after
which other colleagues of theirs intervened and ensured peace reigned. Since
that time, Iyabo and Lizzy remained parallel lines that don’t meet.
According to fresh information filtering in, the two actors
may have eventually reached a peaceful compromise as the feud is said to have
become a thing of the past and they are now friends. Insiders didn’t rule it
out that some people may have actually brokered peace between them underground
but it was revealed it was Iyabo who extended olive branch to Lizzy by visiting
her Ajah situated shop. While they have
made up, they are said to have taken their friendship to enviable level such
that they are planning to go to Mecca together this year as Lizzy is said to be
trying to make Iyabo identify more with her original religion, Islam and her
muslim name, Khadijat reactivated. .
