Fresh details have emerged regarding the recent marriage of Priscilla Ojo, daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo, to a Tanzanian national—news that has stirred widespread conversation across social media.
According to a source cited by popular social commentator VeryDarkMan, Priscilla’s choice to marry outside Nigeria may have been influenced by personal and family reasons, particularly connected to her mother’s public life and past.
Though unconfirmed, the bride is said to be 24 years old while her Tanzanian groom is reportedly 35.
Commentary from the source suggests that Priscilla deliberately avoided marrying within Nigeria, particularly Lagos, to escape the harsh judgment often associated with public figures’ family histories.
“It’s a good thing she didn’t marry a Lagos or Nigerian guy who knows her background—her mother’s divorce story and all that. Some might have used it to shame or drag her,” the source stated. “But the Tanzanian man and his family love and respect her for who she is. They see her as someone from a good and refined background.” Full Details
The report also praised Priscilla’s upbringing, describing her as not only beautiful but also intelligent and well-mannered—a reflection, the source says, of her mother’s efforts in raising her.
It was further revealed that a larger traditional wedding ceremony is being planned in Tanzania, signaling that celebrations are far from over.
