The long-running social media war involving Nollywood actress Lizzy Anjorin and the family of actress Iyabo Ojo has taken a dramatic turn—with a Lagos court ordering Anjorin to keep off Priscilla Ojo’s one-year-old son, Rakeem.
The High Court of Lagos State has restrained Anjorin from publishing, posting, circulating, uploading or broadcasting photographs of Rakeem Mkambala across her social media platforms.
The interim order was granted on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, by Justice Yetunde Adesanya in Suit No. LD/ADR/6646/2026.
Priscilla, her husband, Tanzanian singer Juma Jux, and their son were listed as applicants in the suit against Anjorin.
The court order specifically covers platforms including Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and TikTok, and extends to accounts allegedly linked to the actress.
But the court did not stop at the baby’s photographs.
Anjorin was also ordered to cease and desist from publishing or broadcasting “editorials” concerning Priscilla, Juma and Rakeem on the listed social media platforms pending the hearing and determination of the substantive application.
The order was granted ex parte, meaning Anjorin was not present or heard at that stage. It is therefore an interim measure and not a final judgment on the underlying dispute.
HOW THE FEUD GOT HERE
The court battle is the latest chapter in a bitter public fallout between Anjorin and Priscilla’s mother, Iyabo Ojo, which has spilled across social media for years.
The feud has previously involved allegations and counter-allegations, with Iyabo Ojo also filing a ₦1 billion defamation suit against Anjorin.
The latest flashpoint centred on baby Rakeem, who was born in Canada in August 2025 and turned one on August 24, 2026.
Priscilla had kept her son’s face away from public view for much of his first year before unveiling his face during his first birthday celebrations.
Anjorin subsequently made claims questioning the child’s parentage and alleging that he was brought from Kenya. Those claims have not been independently established and are not findings made by the court.
The latest court order does not determine the truth or otherwise of those allegations. Instead, it temporarily restricts Anjorin’s social media activity concerning the family while the substantive case proceeds.
As of Friday, September 4, Anjorin had not publicly responded to the order.
The case file has also been directed back to the Lagos High Court Registry for reassignment to the appropriate division.
