Nollywood Actress Makes Explosive Allegations Against Femi Adebayo's Estranged Wife
In a dramatic escalation of the ongoing Nollywood marital saga, actress Olatoun Olanrewaju has publicly released voice notes and WhatsApp chats containing serious allegations against Omotayo Sanusi, popularly known as Iyan Aladuke, the estranged wife of acclaimed actor and filmmaker Femi Adebayo.
Emotional Distress and False Accusations
Olatoun claims she has endured months of emotional turmoil after being falsely blamed for marital issues she did not create. "You've taken too much from me. I constantly cry and wish I never met you," the actress wrote in a social media post, challenging her accuser to publicly admit her own actions.
The actress maintained she never had any romantic or sexual involvement with Femi Adebayo, emphasizing that she had known him strictly as a mentor and senior colleague long before his marriage to Iyan Aladuke.
How the Friendship Began and Deteriorated
According to Olatoun, their relationship started in 2023 when Iyan Aladuke reached out to her via Instagram direct message. They bonded over shared parenting challenges, particularly raising children with special needs, and developed what Olatoun described as a family-like connection.
However, the situation allegedly took a dark turn when Iyan Aladuke began using Olatoun as what she called a "police" to monitor Femi Adebayo's activities on movie locations. The released voice notes and WhatsApp chats purportedly document this arrangement.
The October 2024 Incident That Changed Everything
Olatoun claims a major turning point occurred during the filming of Jagun Jagun 2 in October 2024. She alleges that Iyan Aladuke did "unspeakable things" to her husband on set, an incident she says marked the beginning of the marital breakdown.
"She told me he would never know peace. I warned her repeatedly," Olatoun added, claiming she tried to mediate and restore peace between the couple but her efforts were ignored.
Alleged Plot to Damage Femi Adebayo's Reputation
The actress further alleges that Iyan Aladuke planned to use her name to spread damaging lies about Femi Adebayo, including spiritual accusations and claims of diabolical practices designed to tarnish the actor's image.
The situation became particularly real for Olatoun when Femi Adebayo reportedly called her, confused by rumors he had heard involving her name. "That was when I knew you believed I wouldn't speak," she stated in her revelations.
History of Public Clashes Between the Women
This is not the first public confrontation between the two women. In 2025, during the peak of her marital crisis, Iyan Aladuke had accused Olatoun of destroying her home, describing the alleged betrayal as particularly painful.
The tension has resurfaced just days after reports emerged that Iyan Aladuke's popular eatery in Yaba was sealed by armed personnel over an alleged unpaid bank loan, adding another layer to the unfolding drama.
Friend's Perspective on the Marital Struggle
Meanwhile, a friend of Iyan Aladuke identified as Monmarttkids has presented a different narrative. According to posts shared on her official business page, Iyan Aladuke made frantic efforts to save her marriage and loved Femi Adebayo deeply.
The friend claimed the caterer pleaded with people to help preserve the union and even sent influential individuals to beg the actor to reconsider their relationship.
The conflicting accounts continue to fuel speculation within Nigeria's entertainment industry, with fans and colleagues closely watching how this high-profile Nollywood drama will unfold in the coming days.
