The actress announced the achievement on Instagram, describing the success as a testament to faith and resilience amid mounting criticism.

Iyabo Ojo shared images from the 80th birthday celebration of Ita Giwa, using the moment to express gratitude to fans across Nigeria and West Africa for their support.

She stated that no opposition can prevail when backed by divine favour, adding that the film remains in cinemas while preparations are underway for its United Kingdom premiere on April 25.

The Iyabo Ojo N224m box office success comes against the backdrop of recent controversies surrounding the actress and her associates.

Addressing the backlash, Iyabo Ojo said she had previously intervened in efforts to reconcile both actresses but would no longer involve herself in their dispute. She urged critics to respect her decision.

Her daughter, Priscilla Ojo, also defended her, alleging a pattern of controversies aimed at undermining the film’s success.

She said narratives are often distorted whether her mother speaks out or remains silent.
