In her post, Iyabo Ojo wrote, “@houseofphreedahbodycare hmmmmm my darling, if I knew you had this on your mind, I wouldn’t have gotten off the phone with you. Of course, you knew what you wanted to do, but you diverted my attention elsewhere.
Story for when we see (cos you’re going nowhere). Thank God for the people who were there right on time to save the situation.
