Amid the ongoing Nigerian Labour Congress strike and other controversies going on in Nigeria, X users slammed Toyin Abraham for not revealing the plans President Tinubu had for Nigeria which made her declare support for him in the last elections.
This is not the first time, the actress has been trolled over her political affiliation. TBN believes that though her decision may seem genuine, the multitude of Nigerians who are neck-deep in poverty believe she is only after her loading her pocket.
Recall that last year, Toyin Abraham revealed why she is campaigning for the current President, Bola Tinubu. In a post shared on X, the actress wrote, “For the first time, I met the incoming president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria aand he shared some of his Ideas, Visions and Strategy to solve the challenges before us, as a Nation.”
“Listening to him indeed renewed my hope and reaffirmed why he is my choice.” Unfortunately, the bargained hope is not being seen by Nigerians. The president has continued to focus on irrelevant policies and expenditures like changing the national anthem, buying a presidential yacht and even trying to put a tax on every bank transaction. The last was met with public outcry and the policy was abandoned.
With the increased inflation comes an increased standard of living, a situation that ultimately led to the strike by NLC over the minimum wage. Social media posts made with respect to the strike have seen fans blasting Toyin Abraham. X User Khalid tweeted against the actress saying, “One day Toyin Abraham will tell us the great plans Baba Tinubu shared with her. One day”
Another X user Anthony not Joshua, blasted her saying, “@toyin_abraham if you no tell us soon, e no go better for you.” The post which angers the actress had her replying,” E no go better for you too. Oni jere laye ati lorun. Awon ABIYAMO aye ati Osho ati emere won ni yo nu si e, o ti sise lati oni lo. Oni ri Idunnu laye e Mo. enu ma kan ti ti lailai.”
The third X User, Otunba referred to her last year post tweeting, “Maybe one day Toyin Abraham will divulge the plans Bola Tinubu shared with her to the public. I strongly believe we deserve to hear. Thank u @toyin_abraham1.” Taking to her X page, Toyin Abraham responded.
“You asked me in a polite way so I will definitely answer you, of course, I was told and promised good governance and happiness for everyone and I believe. If things didn’t go well why do I have to be the one to suffer for it I remember I voted for Jonathan and I was bullied but I didn’t put the blame on anyone after everyone chose Buhari. So please why would they be cursing and trolling me every time”
