Veteran Nollywood actress, Iya Rainbow has disclosed in a recent interview with BBC Africa<\/a> that she urged her colleague, Princess to drop the rape charges against the embattled actor, Baba Ijesha for allegedly molesting her 14-year-old ward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In April 2021, Baba Ijesha, real name Olanrewaju Omiyinka<\/a> was arrested and charged to court for sexually assaulting the ward of the comedian-actress, Princess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The veteran actress, Idowu Phillips, popularly known as Iya Rainbow; says she pleaded with Comedienne Princess for four days in order to drop the case of alleged child molestation against Baba Ijesha but she refused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to her, she said now that Baba Ijesha has been released; things have to be resolved amicably among the theatre practitioners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBefore the matter was settled; I asked the princess for four days not to take the matter to court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI urge her not to let this matter get louder, but she refused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNow, see how the whole thing played out,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also stated that either Baba Ijesha is guilty or not, their group must rise up and settle things amicably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recall Baba Ijesha was granted N2 million bail a couple of days ago. He is expected to meet the bail requirements within seven days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
