Last year, Dayo Amusa had laid heavy curses on those who mocked her for being barren. The movie star had gotten into trouble with Nigerians over her support for 2024 APC presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and for shading a certain colleague, which many believed was Iyabo Ojo, for not campaigning for him. Her post earned her several backlashes as many trolled her with her sensitive issue. As such, Dayo went on Instagram Live to bitterly curse them, praying for them to experience such.
Some years back, Amusa disclosed why she stayed in an abusive relationship that almost ruined her life. She said it was hard to leave because she used to be a fixer until she realized that you can’t fix a broken egg. She disclosed that she was always attracting emotionally unavailable men, narcissists, drug abusers, sociopaths, and more until she realized that the reason she was attracting those types of men was that she believed she could save them.
