Nollywood actress Liz Anjorin has reacted to an interim order issued by the Lagos State High Court restraining her from publishing or circulating photographs of Priscilla Ojo’s one-year-old son, Rakeem Mkambala.
The court order has become the latest development in a public dispute involving Anjorin and members of the Ojo family, with the actress responding to the development during an Instagram Live session on Friday.
Rather than remain silent over the order, Anjorin used the social media broadcast to mock veteran actress Iyabo Ojo, Priscilla Ojo’s mother, over her decision to publicise the court document on social media.
The development has attracted attention because it involves the privacy of a young child and the use of social media to share information surrounding an ongoing legal dispute.
The interim order reportedly restricts Anjorin from publishing, reproducing or circulating photographs of Rakeem Mkambala, who is the son of Priscilla Ojo and Tanzanian singer Juma Jux.
The restriction means that the actress is expected to refrain from sharing images of the child pending further proceedings in the matter.
The legal development comes against the backdrop of tensions that have played out publicly on social media, where celebrities and public figures often have large audiences capable of amplifying personal disputes within minutes.
During her Instagram Live session, Anjorin questioned Iyabo Ojo’s decision to make the court order public and mocked the veteran actress over the move.
Her reaction has since generated further discussion online, with social media users expressing differing opinions about the dispute, the court’s intervention and the decision by those involved to discuss aspects of the matter publicly.
The case also highlights the growing legal and privacy concerns surrounding the publication of photographs and personal information involving children, particularly when such content is circulated on platforms with millions of users.
While celebrities routinely share aspects of their personal lives with their followers, disputes can arise when another party publishes or circulates images without consent or in circumstances that lead to legal action.
The court’s interim intervention is expected to remain in place while the matter progresses through the legal process, although the order itself does not necessarily represent a final determination of all issues between the parties.
Anjorin’s public reaction has added another layer to the developing dispute, as the parties continue to express their positions through legal and social media channels.
For now, the actress is restrained from publishing or circulating photographs of Rakeem Mkambala under the terms of the interim order, while further developments in the case are awaited.
