In the last few years, Iyabo Ojo has literally criss crossed both the English and Yoruba movie sectors of Nollywood, showcasing her acting skill to the delight of movie buffs.
The mother of two has suffered bad press at different times, yet she has remained unshaken, remaining faithful to her love: acting.
The petite movie producer, while chatting with The Eagle Online recently, said: “I rushed into marriage.
“Then, I was not even in the industry.
“And you will agree with me that the older you get, the calmer you become and the more you reason deeply before taking any action.
“My first marriage was very fast: we dated for about six months before we got married.
“It was two different people under one roof.
“We didn’t really understand each other.
“I didn’t understand my ex’s way of life and I was not even ready to accept his way of life either.
“He wanted me to understand him.
“I came from a family where you go to work in the morning and come back in the evening to stay with your family.
“But he came from a world where he could go for one week and when he is back, he is back.
“So that didn’t really work and that was the genesis of our problems.
“So, I knew it was not what I wanted.
“I wanted more out of life.
“So I moved on.”
