I Didn’t Collect Any Dime To Support Tinubu – Toyin Abraham Tells Critics

Published

Nollywood actress, Toyin Abraham

Nollywood actress and filmmaker, Toyin Abraham, has addressed her critics regarding her support for Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

In January, during a live interview on the television talk show “Your View,” Toyin expressed her intention to vote for Tinubu due to his contributions to the Nigerian film industry.

Since then, she has faced backlash, insults, and trolling on social media.

Despite the criticism, Toyin appeared unfazed during a live Instagram session with actress Kemi Afolabi.

She stated that those who cursed or swore at her over her preferred candidate were wasting their time because she did not collect any money to support Tinubu.

She clarified that she did not campaign for anyone, and her decision to choose a candidate was hers alone. Additionally, she emphasized that she sells her movies through cinemas and platforms and is financially stable.

“If anybody curses me or swears for me, it can’t affect me because I didn’t collect a dime. It’s only those that took money that can be affected. I, Oluwatoyin, didn’t collect money, and neither did I campaign for anyone, but we’re having this discussion because this is my country, I’m Nigerian, and I gave birth to my child here.

“Nobody can pay me. I sell my movies in cinemas, I sell them on platforms, I’m making my money, and I’m fine. The point is to choose your candidate, and don’t bully me,” she said.

Published

Nigerian music star David Adeleke, widely known as Davido, has disagreed with the advice that voters should leave polling stations immediately after casting their ballots in the ongoing Edo State gubernatorial election.

In an interview with Channels Television on Saturday morning, Mba urged Edo residents to fulfill their civic duty and return home after voting.

He also announced a restriction on vehicular movement in the state from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on election day. “If you’re not accredited for the election, stay off the streets. Cast your vote and go home; it’s your civic duty,” Mba said.

However, Davido, a supporter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), had a different view.

He suggested that voters should remain at the polling stations to ensure their votes are properly counted and to prevent any potential electoral misconduct.

In a tweet, he responded to Mba’s advice with a humorous yet critical tone, writing, “Loooooooool go where ???”

Davido, whose mother is from Edo State, had previously expressed his support for the PDP candidate, Asue Ighodalo.

On September 15, 2024, the singer posted on Instagram, endorsing Ighodalo as “the next Governor of my Mother’s Homeland @asueighodalo.”
