Toyin Abraham Faces Backlash Over Alleged Involvement in Social Media Arrest
Nollywood actress and producer Toyin Abraham has stirred controversy online after being accused of orchestrating the arrest of a social media user and his mother over defamation. During an Instagram live session, Abraham denied these claims, asserting that she had instead filed a petition against cyberbullies who had defamed her online. She explained that she felt compelled to take action due to persistent online bullying, particularly following her public support for President Bola Tinubu during the recent elections.
The incident has sparked a polarizing debate on social media, with some supporting Abraham’s stance against cyberbullying, while others criticize her for perceived censorship and intimidation tactics. This controversy has triggered broader discussions about the boundaries of free speech on social media and the responsibilities of public figures in safeguarding their reputations.
Amidst the backlash, social media users have taken various actions, from threatening to report Abraham’s Instagram page en masse to Netflix, to calling for a boycott of her movies on streaming platforms. Public figures like reality TV star Natacha Akide and comedian Adebowale Adedayo (Mr Macaroni) have weighed in, with Akide urging Nigerians to respect differing opinions and Mr Macaroni cautioning against the misuse of influence to circumvent legal processes.
Nigerian singer Timaya has spoken about elections, urging Nigerians to think carefully about their choices and the longer-term consequences of their votes.
Speaking on the state of the country, he said Nigerians have choices and should be intentional about them.
“Nobody dey advise anybody. If na wetin you dey find to chop now put for your pocket, na your business. No be one day o. Na another 4 years of hardship. If you know what’s good, you have to vote right.”
“I dey travel abroad dey see wetin dey happen na. Rich people dey abroad dey no dey stay for Nigeria, these politicians. Dey just dey work for Nigeria.”
Nigerian singer Rema has sparked reactions online after revealing the streamers he watches for entertainment.
The singer shared a list of popular streamers he follows, naming Enzo, Fanum, Agent, Kai Cenat and Okiki.
“The only streamers I fvck with are Enzo, Fanum, Agent, Kai Cenat, and Okiki.”
After he mentioned his list, Nigerians reacted and shared how some notable Nigerian streamers were not on the list, with many calling out their favourites for not being recognised by the singer.
