Actress Iyabo Ojo Interrogated by EFCC Over Currency Abuse at Daughter’s Wedding

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has interrogated popular Nigerian actress Iyabo Ojo over alleged currency abuse at her daughter’s wedding.

Ugamatv reports that the actress’ daughter, Priscilla Ojo, got married to Tanzanian singer Jux in Nigeria on April 17, 2025, after their Islamic wedding in Tanzania in February.

The wedding, which was the most talked-about ceremony on the internet, was attended by both Nigerian and foreign celebrities.

Guests were captured at the lavish wedding spraying dollar bills and Naira notes.

However, addressing the viral speculations about her encounter with the EFCC after the ceremony, Iyabo Ojo explained that she was interrogated after honoring the agency’s invitation.

Ojo, in a post on her Instagram page, said: “I was asked questions relating to my personal biodata, career, work experience, and my companies, amongst others.”

“I was asked if I knew this was illegal, and I explained that I only thought abuse or mutilation of naira was an offense.”

“The EFCC clarified that spraying money on people’s bodies is prohibited. I was surprised to learn that spraying any currency, including dollars, is also not allowed.”
