Social media users are reacting to an adorable video of Priscilla Ojo, the daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo, on the dance floor with her father.
Kemi Filani reported on Thursday that many were surprised to see Priscilla’s father at her wedding as he was believed to be a deadbeat father.
A clip from the wedding that surfaced online shows Priscilla having a one-on-one moment with her father on the dance floor.

Kemi Filani reported that when Priscilla held her introduction and Nikka ceremony in Tanzania, her father was absent, which raised eyebrows. Many speculated that he was absent because he wasn’t invited, especially as he hasn’t been involved in her upbringing since he split from Iyabo Ojo.
Iyabo had always mentioned that after their marriage ended, her children— Festus and Priscilla— did not know she had divorced their father until Priscilla was 15.
During an interview with BTS Reality, Priscilla once spoke about growing up without her dad. When asked if she had ever dealt with depression because of the missing father figure in her life, she disclosed that she initially had daddy issues. She then noted that her mother quickly filled that void for her.
Iyabo Ojo was once married to the father of her two kids, Priscilla and Festus Ojo, Mr. Ademidun Ojo. Unfortunately, the marriage packed up shortly after the birth of their two children.
Speaking on it, Iyabo in a podcast interview revealed that she experienced poverty for the first time when she married her now ex-husband. She described the experience with her ex-husband as an adventure for her, as she was craving attention, which her now ex was providing to her at that time.
