Nollywood producer and actress, Toyin Abraham, is under fire on social media platforms after she reported trolls who cursed and abuse her for supporting President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 general election to the police for cyber-bullying.
The popular Nollywood Actress openly declared her support for president Bola Tinubu during the 2023 presidential election campaign period, while assuring her fans that the President had reeled out his ‘Renewed Hope’ action plans that would address some of the nation’s problems and she was convinced that he would perform.
Aside from the actress, other Yoruba movie stars also declared their support for Tinubu and campaigned vigorously for him.
The president Bola Tinubu administration policies like flouting of the US dollar and petroleum subsidy removal has led to the instability of the naira to the US dollar in the FX market, making it sell for between N1300 and N1,550..
Meanwhile, Most Nigerians have singled out Toyin Abraham because she had always defended her political choice, with many expecting that she would one day tell the public how Tinubu intended to address the various problems confronting Nigeria as a country.
In one of her replies to an X user (now twitter) identified as #Lati, she noted that she had moved on to pursue her career as an actress and was not in government or politics.
Another X user Danny wrote: “Hello @toyin_abraham1, you will have to send the police to pick all of us. You are very shameless”.
Replying to him, Toyin stated that he can abuse all and call her names, and it would be okay but where she draws the line is when people curse her kids and lie.
“You can abuse and call me names; it’s fine, and as I said, I will accept and take it cos I’m in the public eyes, but cursing kids and lying is what I won’t accept, and lastly, I never and will never arrest anyone’s mother. I made a report on cybercrime as a citizen.
I made my report at cybercrime cos the threat to life and curse and threat on my family were beyond what I can take, as for me, abuse me, insult me please, say anything to me but leave my family out of it, she responded.
Another tweet by Uchenna, questioned why the movie star deleted some of her tweets to which she replied was no need to beat around the bush.
