Grace Jimoh, the mother of actor Yomi Fabiyi’s son Akorede, has reacted to comedienne, Princess’ curse on her son after Baba Ijesha’s sexual assault conviction.
An Ikeja Special Offences Court on Thursday, July 14 found Baba Ijesha, born Olanrewaju James, guilty of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl.
The minor is the foster daughter of Princess.
Shortly after the court’s verdict, Princess in an Instagram live session rained curses on Fabiyi, who showed support for Baba Ijesha during the trial.
In the video, Princess laid curses on Akorede, a Yoruba name that means a child who has brought fortune.
“Yomi Fabiyi, your son whom you called Akorede has not brought any fortune for you. The day you point your hand to your child, you’re pointing your hand to an unfortunate thing,” Princess said in Yoruba with a bible clutched to her chest.
Reacting in an Instagram post, Grace share a picture of herself and her child, praying against the curses that had been laid on her son.
She wrote: “Heavenly Father, may my child Akorede Imoleayo, not fear, for you are with him. As I place my child in your mighty loving hands, give him peace.
“Akorede, you will excel in life. You are protected in God’s hand, no curse, no evil will befall you. Amen.”
Knocking Princess for not having a child of her own, the protective mother, wrote” “If you had gone through labour pain, you would know cursing an innocent child/ren is a No.
“There are some children that naturally have back-to-sender spirit. Curse whosoever that offended you. These children are innocent!!! God made you win. He did no evil.”
