The long-standing feud between Nollywood stars Lizzy Anjorin and Iyabo Ojo has taken a dramatic and physical turn as Lizzy officially accepted a challenge to settle their differences in a boxing ring. This latest development follows a social media post where Iyabo was seen practicing her punches, calling on billionaire E-Money and music executive Soso Soberekon to sponsor a match between the two rivals.
Responding with her characteristic fire, Lizzy Anjorin took to her platform to confirm her readiness, though she did not hold back on the insults. She dismissed Iyabo as a failed actress with no real accomplishments and dared her to name a date for the showdown. According to Lizzy, the ring is the only place where she can find the “real justice” she has been seeking, explaining that this is why she avoided further legal battles in the past.
The confrontation has also extended to music executive Paulo Okoye, who is Iyabo’s partner. Years ago, Paulo reportedly suggested a boxing match between the two women with a 10 million Naira prize for the winner. Lizzy has now revisited that proposal but added a significant condition of her own. She challenged Paulo to a ten-round bout against her husband, Chief Lawal, before she ever steps into the ring with Iyabo.
In a series of heated posts monitored by Zoyols News, Lizzy questioned the financial status and achievements of the couple. She challenged them to a public verification of their properties and assets, claiming that despite their public posturing, they are still living in rented apartments while her husband owns vast estates and mansions. She mocked their lifestyle, suggesting that their displays of wealth are hollow and that they should stop looking down on those who choose a more private life.
Lizzy’s message was blunt and deeply personal, accusing Iyabo Ojo of disrespecting her family while allegedly relying on donations and social media begging. She even went as far as joking about having doctors and an ambulance on standby for the fight. This latest outburst is part of a war that has lasted over two years, involving public mockery, intimate allegations, and a failed one-billion-Naira defamatory lawsuit that was dismissed by a Lagos court in 2024. As the industry watches this messy public spat unfold, Lizzy remains firm that she is simply waiting for a date to set the record straight once and for all.
