My Encounter With Nollywood Actress, Iyabo Ojo At A Wedding 

I remember getting invites to attend Queen Ayo Balogun son’s wedding (#jjginger17) some weeks back. I had wanted to shoot the first video for my YouTube channel #partymomentswithhelen and I was so excited. After interviewing a few vendors/guests during the reception, I walked up to Nollywood actresses, Iyabo Ojo and Fathia Williams and requested for an interview. 

Faithia politely told me she doesn’t grant interviews at parties (I bet she would have agreed it were Ovation TV or Goldmynetv) anyway, I was glad she wasn’t rude to me in any way. Meanwhile, it was my second time talking to her. First time was at BON Awards where she allowed me take a picture of her at the event. I had just started blogging then. 

 Iyabo Ojo on the other hand looked at me, collected my notepad, went through it, handed it over to me and turned her face away. This same Iyabo Ojo that I introduced myself to as a blogger in 2011 and she said ‘pls what is a blog’ I explained what a blog is to her then sha! I laugh anytime I remember what happened. Truth is, at some point in your career, people will treat you nice while others won’t. It is your duty to keep pushing and never give up because you are responsible for whatever you make out of your life.
