Actor Yomi Fabiyi has recounted how an ambush was made on him at the Lagos high court on contempt of the court for the movie 'Oko Iyabo', which he produced, adding that he was however saved by Baba Ijesha's defence team. He said that the prosecutor was blinded by TAMPAN's letter, the movie trailer, title and social media noise, but didn't see the movie, which according to him, is not about the case in court. According to Fabiyi, The movie was written and shot 2nd to 6th June, 2021, ever before the court called off their strike. The order for parties to the case not comment publicly was given on the 24th June, 2021. The main story traverses around Iyabo and Yomi, they are not witness or party to the case. He explained that real name of the survivor was not at anytime used, and he purposely dodged the use of full names, image or voice of any person directly connected. He urged critics to thoroughly investigate their subject and speak from raw knowledge and understanding, adding that it is shocking to see publications that Lagos government wishes to prosecute him. Fabiyi noted that he should never be made a scapegoat for campaigning for fair trial, equal justice and human rights protection of all parties in Baba Ijesha's case. See post below,
