Ezuka SharonFamous Nollywood actress and filmmaker Toyin Abraham during a live Instagram session with actress Kemi Afolabi said that APC presidential candidate Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the candidate she has chosen to vote for. Nobody paid her to do so.
The filmmaker noted during the live session that she makes movies and sells them in cinemas and other platforms and does not need to get paid as she makes her own money. Recall that the actress had earlier in January, during a live interview on a popular television talk show, Your View, said she would be voting for Tinubu as he had impacted the movie industry greatly.

However, this came with backlash, insults and critics on social media. Speaking with fellow Nollywood actress Kemi during the Instagram live session, Toyin Abraham stated that she has a right to choose and vote for her preferred candidate. She also mentioned that those trolling and laying curses on her were wasting their time.
“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 am a 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.”
