Nollywood actor, Yomi Fabiyi has faced heavy criticisms for advertising his new movie, Oko Iyabo despite the backlash he received when he launched the movie.
Recall that few days ago, a lot of celebrities criticized Yomi Fabiyi for producing a movie around Baba Ijesha’s sexual assault saga. Due to this backlash, Yomi Fabiyi had to take down his movie from YouTube.
However, on Saturday, Yomi Fabiyi decided to re-launch his new movie by advertising the link on his Instagram page. This new move by Yomi Fabiyi has made many Nigerians criticize him for being insensitive to the sexual assault saga.
