Controversial Nollywood actor Baba Ijesha has reignited the scandal that sent him to prison, claiming he was framed and declaring that “humans are more wicked than snakes.”

Speaking months after his release from Kirikiri prison, the actor accused comedian Princess of orchestrating the events that led to his conviction over the alleged assault of her foster daughter.

In a viral music video recounting his version of events, Baba Ijesha said he was lured to her house under the pretext of a movie role and a meal before being trapped in what he described as a setup.

The explosive claims reopen a deeply polarising case that rocked Nigeria’s entertainment industry.
