“I Didn’t Deserve This”: Lizzy Anjorin Opens Up After Tope Alabi Missed Paid Birthday Performance
Nollywood actress and entrepreneur, Lizzy Anjorin, has spoken out emotionally following gospel singer Tope Alabi’s decision not to honor a paid birthday performance that fans had planned as a surprise for her. According to Lizzy, her fans paid Tope Alabi N4 million to show up at her birthday celebration, but the singer failed to appear.
In a heartfelt message laced with disappointment and emotional pain, Lizzy shared:
“Aunty Tope, my fans paid you N3 million. I have the evidence. Even if you were paid just N500,000—aren’t you a professional? As actors, we are taught to deliver our roles, even if it means showing affection to an enemy on set. That’s what being a professional means.”
The betrayal hit deeper for Lizzy because of their history. She reminded Tope of how she stood by her during difficult times:
“When the world turned its back on you during your fallout with Prophet Ajanaku, I didn’t. I stood by you. I’ve played your songs—not out of necessity—but because I wanted to uplift you, to support your ministry, your brand.”
Fighting back tears, Lizzy reflected on the pain of being hurt by someone she once called a sister:
“You came outside my place yesterday and saw how much grace God has shown me, and you still called me your sister. So why act like a stranger? No matter how much they paid you, did I deserve that treatment from you?”
She went on to compare their impact on others, not out of pride, but to highlight how deeply the snub wounded her:
“You are not purer than I am. I’ve empowered more people, added more value to society, and lifted others with my platform. You can judge me all you want, but you are not God. And only He knows the truth in our hearts.”
Lizzy’s voice cracked with emotion as she closed her message, not in anger, but with the pain of betrayal:
“I won’t destroy everything you’ve built over this, but what you did yesterday hurt me more than words can say. I didn’t expect this from you.”
