Popular actress and podcaster, Biola Adebayo has apologised to Nigerians for interviewing Baba Ijesha on her podcast.

She said: “I apologise to everyone. I’m very sorry, please forgive me. I will never support a rapist or pedophile. I thought I was just an interviewer, my role is to interview him, hear what he had to say.”
“I thought he would apologise but he did not do so. But it’s not in my place to condemn him. My platform is for the good and the bad, it’s for both Saint and the sinners.”
“The platform is not for only the people that you like alone. I’m a mother, a Christian and I’m also a rape victim.”
”So, I will never enable anybody. The interview was not to exonerate Baba Ijesha, to agree with whatever he was saying or for him to come and claim innocent on my show.”
“And a lot of people are insinuating that the video is to tarnish Iyabo Ojo’s image. I will never do that.”
For those who don’t know, Baba Ijesha, who was recently released from prison over sexual assault related offense, appeared on Biola’s podcast (Talk to B) over the weekend.
Speaking during the interview, the actor claimed that the allegation was false, accusing comedienne, Princess of setting him up.
He also stated that actress Iyabo Ojo who supported his imprisonment once entrusted her kids, Priscilla and Festus in his custody.
