“I cannot be silenced” – Iyabo Ojo reacts to TAMPAN ban

One of the victimized actresses, Iyabo Ojo has publicly declared that she cannot be silenced over her suspension from the Theater Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN). 

TAMPAN in its communique accused Iyabo Ojo, Nkechi Blessing of “reckless accusations, abuses and embarrassment of our sector”.

The communique noted that an offence against one is an offence against all, adding that the association will no longer tolerate “infringements”.

Reacting to this, Iyabo Ojo in a post shared on her Instagram page said she cannot be silenced despite the verdict from TAMPAN. She said keeping silent is the reason most girls are abused and molested daily and she refuses to be bullied.

Her post read, “Silence is golden is why a lot of girls or boy children get abused, raped and molested daily and yet they are afraid to speak up because they will be bullied into silence by the same society meant to protect them.
