  • A Lagos State High Court issued an interim order barring Lizzy Anjorin and people acting for her from publishing photographs of Rakeem Mkambala or editorials about his family on named social media platforms.
  • Justice Yetunde Adesanya issued the order on September 2, 2026, after an ex-parte application by Priscilla Ojo Mkambala, Juma Mussa Mkambala and their son.
  • The order is not a final ruling, and reports say Anjorin has publicly challenged the court action.

A Lagos State High Court has ordered Nollywood actress Lizzy Anjorin to stop publishing or circulating photographs of the one-year-old son of actress Priscilla Ojo Mkambala and Tanzanian singer Juma Mussa Mkambala, known as Juma Jux.

Justice Yetunde Adesanya granted the interim order on September 2, 2026, in Suit No. LD/ADR/6646/2026. The application was filed by Priscilla Ojo Mkambala, Juma Mussa Mkambala and their son, Master Rakeem Mkambala.

The order bars Elizabeth Lawal, Anjorin’s agents, representatives, employees and anyone acting under her authority from publishing, posting, uploading, circulating or broadcasting photographs of Rakeem. The restrictions cover Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and TikTok. The court also prohibited editorials concerning the applicants from being published or broadcast on those platforms while the substantive Motion on Notice remains pending.

The court identified several social media accounts allegedly linked to Anjorin and directed her to cease and desist from the prohibited publications. The dispute is part of a long-running public conflict between Anjorin and members of Priscilla’s family. It has previously included a ₦1 billion defamation suit filed by Priscilla’s mother, actress Iyabo Ojo.

The order remains an interim measure and does not determine the dispute finally. Reports published on Friday said Anjorin has since challenged the court action publicly.
