The perennial "I Just Got Back" (IJGB) versus Lagos Babes saga has reignited, this time fueled by a fiery critique from London-based Nigerian influencer Madam Joyce.
The social media personality claims she was "snubbed" by Lagos women during a recent outing, accusing them of jealousy and insecurity.

Madam Joyce's Viral Rant
In a video that has since gone viral, Madam Joyce lamented her experience at a Lagos event where her attempts to greet attendees were met with what she described as icy indifference. She alleged that the Lagos babes viewed her as a threat, assuming she was out to "steal their men."
"I walked into that event looking gorgeous and high-profile, greeted everyone, and they all looked at me like I’m here to compete with them. It’s not my fault I’m attractive and well-connected," Joyce declared, adding fuel to the ongoing IJGB vs Lagos Babes rivalry.
The "IJGB" Phenomenon
The term IJGB refers to Nigerians who return home from abroad during the festive season, often flaunting their foreign lifestyles, accents, and luxury items. This annual migration has long sparked tensions, with Lagos women accusing IJGBs of arrogance, while the returnees criticize locals for being overly territorial.
Notably, Madam Joyce isn’t the only one to highlight the culture clash. Even UFC fighter Israel Adesanya recently joked about receiving less attention than expected from Lagos women, further emphasizing the ongoing divide.
Fans Weigh In
Social media discussions have become heated, with opinions divided over the issue. Some see the situation as a predictable clash fueled by the return of individuals from abroad, viewing it as an inevitable source of drama. Others argue that criticisms stem from misplaced insecurity and suggest a more understanding approach. Meanwhile, there are those who defend the perceived confidence as self-assurance rather than arrogance, emphasizing the need for mutual respect in such interactions.
Annual Festive Frenzy
This time of year often sees a clash of lifestyles and perceptions as IJGBs flood Lagos hotspots, bringing their unique blend of diaspora flair. From fashion and accents to high-profile connections, their presence often leaves local residents feeling overshadowed—or outright annoyed.
What’s Next?
As Madam Joyce’s video continues to trend, fans are bracing for more drama as IJGBs and Lagos babes navigate this annual festive face-off. With the season just getting started, the rivalry promises plenty of spicy confrontations and viral moments.
