‘Tell us the ideas Tinubu shared with you’, Nigerians drag actress Toyin Abraham for arresting online bully
Nollywood actress and movie producer, Toyin Abraham, has become the butt of severe criticism by netizens following her arrest of an online bully who allegedly laid curses on her, her family and wished her son dead.
The actress who is currently receiving heat on social media for writing a petition against the online troll identified as Ayodele, came under fire when social media users descended on her, forcing her to do an Instagram video where she stated that she will no longer tolerate bullies as she is ready to die.
She insinuated that the trolls are picking on her for supporting President Bola Tinubu during the 2023 presidential election.
The actress stated that she has not committed any crime to warrant bullies coming for her because what she did during the election was to exercise her democratic right.
Toyin emphasized that she is ready to die and will ensure that she goes along with her bullies because she refuses to be wrongly accused, insisting that she has been pushed to the wall and will no longer condone it.
‘’You can’t accuse me wrongly and expect me not to say anything. I will not arrest anyone’s mum. I never arrested anyone’s mother.
“It is a different thing when you commit a crime. It is a different thing when you are a criminal, you do something bad and people are dragging you and you know you have done something bad. I have not committed any crime.
“I have only exercised my democratic rights and they keep bullying me. I came on social media to beg everybody to leave me the hell alone.
“You guys that are bullying me, I am ready to die but before I die, I am ready to die but a lot of you bullies, we will die together. I have kept quiet. You guys have pushed me to the wall I am now a mad person. I want to die,” she said.

But her plea seemed not to assuage netizens who, rather than back down, came out enmasse to pour invectives on her.

Toyin Abraham @toyin_abraham1 you’re EXTREMELY shameless.
When you’re done bullying people that are not your mates, come outside and tell us the ideas Tinubu told you.
You think your 0/10 tacky movies will save you when the country’s economy collapses due to terrible policies?
YOU ARE SHAMELESS.
Come and put body✌🏻.

When you finish using the Police as a tool, you will come and tell us the ‘ideas, vision and strategy’ Tinubu shared with you to solve Nigeria’s problems.

Welcome to Nigeria where people like Toyin Abraham because she supports Tinibu can just wake up and lockup citizens without any court order. They are now the court and feel untouchable
Until we start holding idiots like this accountable sanity won’t return to this country.

This is why we need a revolution.
If not, this country will become anarchist; with people like Toyin calling the shots and making up rules as they go.

It’s either they release Ayo immediately or they get ready to arrest all of us tomorrow.
The Nigerian youths are even looking for an opportunity to protest this hardship govt brought by Toyin Abraham’s influence.
