Yoruba actor Olanrewaju “Baba Ijesha” James has brushed aside criticism over his recent public appearances, insisting he is unbothered by public opinion during a visit to National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) President Musiliu “MC Oluomo” Akinsanya.
The actor, accompanied by his wife, fashion entrepreneur Abiodun Tokunbo, paid a courtesy visit to MC Oluomo in Abuja, where he described their relationship as a long-standing friendship and declared that “glory had met glory.”
The visit came days after the Ooni of Ife, Adeyeye Ogunwusi, publicly denied conferring the “Awada Konge Oduwa” chieftaincy title on Baba Ijesha, despite the actor’s earlier announcement claiming he had received the honour. Baba Ijesha has not directly addressed the Ooni’s denial.
Instead, he used the visit to MC Oluomo to dismiss his critics, saying he would not be distracted by public commentary surrounding his recent activities.
He said: “Glory has met glory.MC Oluomo and I have been together for a very long time. We don’t kill people, that’s a lie. We did all the work: driving, conducting.
