The separation between media personality Mayowa Lambe and popular On-Air Personality (OAP) Roby Ekpo has continued to generate conversations across Nigerian social media, with friends and well-wishers now taking sides in the escalating drama.
In a recent development, a close friend of Mayowa Lambe—a Nigerian makeup artist—has stepped forward to defend the former Mrs. Ekpo against allegations and narratives circulating online following the couple’s public split.
What We Know So Far
The marriage between Mayowa Lambe and Roby Ekpo, which was once admired by many Nigerians, has now become a subject of public scrutiny following their separation. Like many celebrity breakups in Nigeria’s entertainment industry, the split has been accompanied by accusations, counter-accusations, and heated exchanges on social media.
While details of what led to the breakdown of their marriage remain largely private, the public nature of their separation has drawn reactions from friends, family members, and fans who have followed their relationship over the years.
Friend Speaks Up in Defence
The makeup artist, whose identity has not been fully disclosed, took to social media to share her perspective on the situation, particularly addressing what she described as unfair treatment and misrepresentation of Mayowa Lambe’s character.
According to sources familiar with the situation, the friend’s statement aimed to set the record straight on certain allegations while calling for empathy and understanding from Nigerians who have been following the drama online.
“Not everything you see on social media is the complete truth,” the friend reportedly stated, urging the public to consider that there are always multiple sides to every story, especially in matters as sensitive as marriage and separation.
The Nigerian Social Media Factor
As is typical with celebrity relationship dramas in Nigeria, social media users have been quick to share opinions, with some supporting Mayowa Lambe while others have sided with Roby Ekpo. The situation highlights once again how public figures in Nigeria often find their personal lives dissected and judged in the court of public opinion.
The involvement of friends and associates in defending their loved ones publicly has also become a common trend whenever Nigerian celebrities go through relationship challenges, with loyalty and solidarity often playing out on Instagram, Twitter (now X), and other platforms.
Moving Forward
While both Mayowa Lambe and Roby Ekpo navigate this difficult chapter in their lives, their supporters continue to hope for peaceful resolution and healing for all parties involved.
As the story continues to develop, many Nigerians are calling for respect for the privacy of those involved, especially if there are children affected by the separation.
