Nollywood's Baba Ijesha is back in the spotlight after releasing a video where he labels his former friend, Princess, as a "devil" who conspired to destroy his career.
The actor, who served time for sexual assault, insists that the evidence used against him in court was part of a "movie rehearsal" gone wrong.
Baba Ijesha was released in November 2025 after fully serving his concurrent prison sentences for sexual assault and indecent treatment of a child.
The actor claims he was invited to Princess’s home under the guise of discussing a new film role and eating pounded yam, unaware that he was being recorded.
While Baba Ijesha maintains his innocence, the Lagos State Ministry of Justice previously clarified that his conviction was affirmed by the Court of Appeal and his release was purely due to the completion of his sentence.
This new video has reignited discussions on social media, with many fans and activists debating the actor's attempt to clear his name after serving his time.
