Ijoba Lande fumes at Erekere for ‘editing’ Baba Tee into their skit
Comedian Ijoba Lande has called out his colleague Erekere for allegedly editing actor Baba Tee into a skit without his consent.
Erekere shared the skit featuring Lande and Baba Tee on Wednesday morning.
The skit made light of Lande’s recent marital crisis and featured a ‘Truth or Dare’ game where the comedian’s partner was swapped — despite his efforts to keep her identity hidden.

Lande’s marital crisis became public on March 3 after he claimed that Darasimi, his estranged wife, had left him after discovering her infidelity with at least 21 men in the entertainment industry, including Baba Tee.
Baba Tee admitted to having a brief sexual encounter with Dara during a game of ‘Truth or Dare’, but she denied the claim, arguing that she only sat on his lap.
In an Instagram post, Lande vowed to make Erekere “a scapegoat for editing Baba Tee” into the skit without his consent, making it appear like they were on set together.
He condemned Erekere for using his “Dara’s voice” in the skit, accusing him of trivialising a situation that caused him pain.
Lande expressed concern that the skit would tarnish his reputation with movie producers, claiming that he had previously turned down offers to work with Baba Tee.
“Erekere, I will make sure you regret what you did with the skit you just posted. If you do not regret it, call me a bastard. I will make you a scapegoat,” he said.
“…Why will you edit Baba Tee into the skit you called me to feature in? Making it look like we were on the set together, without my consent.
“You even used my ex-wife’s voice as voiceover in the skit. You are catching cruise with the situation that’s hurting me.
“I have turned down many movie producers that wanted is to be together in a film. How do you expect them to feel when they watch this skit? I will teach you a lesson.”

Lande forgave Baba Tee and his estranged wife for “having a sexual encounter”. He, however, said that despite forgiving Dara, he would not take her back.
