Popular Nollywood actress and filmmaker, Iyabo Ojo, has subtly addressed and confirmed swirling rumours about her acquisition of a luxurious new mansion in the exclusive Banana Island area of Lagos State.
From Family Home to Creative Hub
The confirmation came indirectly through a heartfelt video she shared on her Instagram page on Tuesday, December 23, 2025. In the video, Iyabo Ojo offered fans an emotional tour of her former residence, announcing its transformation into a service apartment and a dedicated movie production space.
Reliving cherished memories, the mother of two showed viewers around key rooms in the house. She displayed her own bedroom, the rooms of her children, Festus and Priscilla, and even a room that belonged to her late mother. The actress also mentioned plans to remodel certain features of the sitting room.
In a direct message to her colleagues in the film industry, she declared that her former home is now available for movie productions. She captioned the video: "So many beautiful memories... the only constant thing is change. Service apartment loading... For personal and movie productions."

The blogger had written: "Congratulations to her royal highness, Queen Iyabo Ojo on her new home in Banana Island."
