Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has turned 48, and the film star is celebrating the milestone with gratitude and joy.
After days of eagerly counting down to her big day, Iyabo took to Instagram to share stunning photos of herself, describing this year’s birthday as one of the most special she has ever experienced.
According to the actress, the highlight of the new age is gaining new family titles — becoming a mother-in-law and a grandmother — which she described as the greatest gift she received this year. She also expressed deep appreciation to God, declaring that His blessings in her life will be lasting.
Reflecting on her journey, Iyabo noted that her definition of wealth has always been centered on happiness, her children, family, and loved ones thriving, rather than material possessions.
“This is one of my best birthdays.
Daddy, adding ‘mother-in-law’ and ‘Glamma’ to my title is the best gift I got this year. Thank you, Lord, — and yes! It shall be permanent.
I’ve always told God that the only riches I desire are happiness and my kids, family, and loved ones thriving. I’m blessed because I’m surrounded by blessings…. Thank you, Lord, for making 2025 my year; I know 2026 is mine too…..
I’m God’s own special child, and I don’t take it for granted…… clock it! Happy birthday to me!”
Prompt News reports the actress’s post has since attracted an outpouring of birthday wishes and congratulatory messages from fans, colleagues, and well-wishers across social media.
