According to Iyabo, Amusa might have decided not to name names, but she was definitely not the person in question.

She said:

“Dayo Amusa is not referring to me because I am not one of the ladies he paid hotel bills for. Dayo Amusa is not referring to me. Dayo Amusa might choose not to mention the name of the person she’s referring to but that is definitely not me because MC Oluomo did not pay for my mortgage, has never paid for my mortgage, I don’t even think we’ve ever had that discussion before.”

MC Oluomo bought me a TV, Iyabo Ojo says

However, Iyabo admitted that MC Oluomo bought her a TV during her housewarming party and that he is her very good friend. She explained further that he was not the only one who bought her things during her housewarming as people like Tiwa Savage and co rallied around her to support her during the event because she is also a giver.

In her words:

“But yes he (MC Oluomo) has bought me a TV before, he bought a TV for me as his own contribution when I was doing my housewarming. He’s my friend, a lot of people bought things for me when I was doing my housewarming. Someone bought freezer, another bought fridge, another bought AC. Just like when my mum died, I have that gift. From Tiwa Savage to the rest of them, women contributing money, bringing cows, bringing everything, people gift me because I’m also a giver, so Dayo Amusa is not referring to me because there is no place in the list that MC Oluomo paid for me and my daughter’s hotel so she’s not referring to me.

Also in the viral video, Iyabo Ojo made it clear that social media users should not try to cause a fight because she and Amusa are actually friends. The movie star also explained that she and Tinubu are not friends, but she is friends with his son, Seyi Tinubu.

She said:

“You guys should not cause fight, Dayo Amusa is my friend. I and Tinubu were never friends but I and Seyi Tinubu are friends. I don’t deny my friends because of political battles because the party will change but your friends remain. Because we share different political interests today does not mean we will no longer be friends. We might fight today for our political differences but trust me tomorrow we might still sit, wine and dine.”

Iyabo once again read through the list of favours Amusa used to shade people and noted that none of them concerns her because she has never gained such favours from MC Oluomo.
