Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham has shared a series of subtle posts online shortly after Iyabo Ojo spoke about the ongoing situation involving her and Funke Akindele.
Earlier, Iyabo Ojo released a detailed statement where she revealed she had once tried to mediate peace between the two actresses but said she was no longer willing to involve herself further in their issues.
She also touched on the cause of their recent disagreement and asked fans to respect her decision to step back from the issue.
Iyabo Ojo had written:
“For those of you maligning my character, insulting me, and calling me unprintable names, this is for you!! Now, I need to set the record straight. This is the first and last time I will be talking about anything like this…… Funke and I have been friends for the longest, but there were times we fell out, fault on both sides.
I once came online to drag Funke because of Toyin’s movie. That was a wrong move on my part; I should have handled it better. Funke and I later made up, addressed all our issues, and put them behind us. I tried my very best to settle both of them, cried, knelt, and begged both parties to embrace peace, which they later did. That’s why you saw them a few months ago interacting with one another.
Still, there was a condition, no one was to shade online if any issue arose, they both promised to address it off camera, but unfortunately, Dec came, Toyin made some complaints about her movie in cinemas, claiming some people or a person was trying to sabotage her, some fans pointed accusing fingers towards Funke, which sparked up a fresh beef.
About The Return of Arinzo, Toyin was supposed to be in it, but she said she was exhausted. She also had to travel, so she pulled out at the last minute. I was upset because it cost me a alot to rewrite the story. Still, the show must go on, we had a deadline to film if I wanted The Return of Arinzo to make 3rd of April ……. she apologised, we made up, and the rest is history.”
Honestly, all this saddened me because the sky is big enough for all of us. I have tried my best, but at this point, I can’t beg anyone anymore. I honestly don’t want to get involved anymore. Please, you all should respect that… when both parties are ready, they will make peace……….. I love them both regardless…. The Return of Arinzo will start showing in all cinemas nationwide from the 3rd of April”.
Despite the buzz generated by Iyabo’s comments, Toyin Abraham appeared unbothered.
Taking to her Instagram page, she posted a video promoting her new project, where she referred to herself as “Jesus Bestie.”
She wrote:
“Bestie Jesu as Zainab in Love Between Two Altars. Love Between Two Altars will start showing from Thursday, the 2nd of April, on Toyin Abraham TV on YouTube by 6pm.”
In another post, she continued to promote her YouTube channel, hinting at more content for her audience and building anticipation ahead of the release.
“Trust me, Fam, you’re in for a ride on Toyin Abraham TV on YouTube, just on your notification and subscription. Thursday, 2nd of April, Love Between Two Altars will be dropping by 6 pm.”
