Veteran actress Bimbo Akintola has opened up about how she met her colleague, Iyabo Ojo, and helped her with her acting career.
In an interview on Oyinmomo TV, Bimbo said Iyabo visited her house at 19, expressing passion for acting.
Bimbo Akintola said she was impressed by Iyabo’s determination and even helped her secure a lead role in a film.
“Iyabo came to my parents house. She was very young and I asked, ‘What do you want?’ She said she wanted to act. She was 19 when we met.
What I like is that she went the extra mile to fulfil her acting dream,” she said.
However, things took a turn when Iyabo allegedly offended Bimbo after getting the role, particularly since Bimbo had to advocate for her to get the part.
