Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham is celebrating her latest Cinema win.

The filmmaker, via her Instagram page, revealed that her movie, Oversabi Aunty, has hit N382,897,436.

Sharing the good news on her Instagram page, Abraham expressed gratitude to God and her fans. She noted how, without them, she is nothing.

Toyin said that achieving such a milestone in just 11 days is huge for her, as she noted that her previous movies took three weeks to reach this milestone.

“Honestly, I can’t thank God and you, my amazing fans, enough. Without your love and support, I am nothing.

Achieving this kind of milestone in just 11 days is HUGE for me! What took 3 weeks before, we’ve now done in 11 days. Eshey! Modupe ganni!

Oversabi Aunty is still hot and showing in cinemas nationwide. Please go watch it and tell others. It’s not just a movie; it’s a super story packed with real-life lessons.

Thank you again and again”.

A few days back, Abraham was left emotional over the massive love she received from residents of Bonny Island in Port Harcourt. Sharing photos of the crowd at the cinema, for her movie, she praised them for their love and energy, which was unmatched.

Last week, Abraham expressed happiness as her movie, Oversabi Aunty, hit N100 million. The wife of Kolawole Ajeyemi declared that her voice is from God, but her nakedness is covered by her fans, whom she described as the real ones.

Early this year, Abraham had achieved a new milestone as her latest cinema movie, Alakada Bad and Boujee, gets ranked the 5th highest grossing Nollywood release of all time.

In March, Silverbird honored the actress with a Trailblazer award at the 2024 Silverbird Man of the Year award for being fearless, dynamic and redefining Nollywood.

To celebrate her win, Toyin penned a heartfelt note on Instagram, noting how the award is a reminder that hard work, perseverance, and passion never go unnoticed. She noted that the journey hasn’t always been easy, but every challenge has shaped her.

“I have given out millions without a single soul knowing” – Bimbo Ademoye

Published

on

Nollywood actress Bimbo Ademoye has released a statement addressing those attacking her over her giveaways.

The movie star, via her Instagram page, said some people were reaching out to her in her DMs, calling her giveaways fake and hurling insults.

Bimbo made it clear that she doesn’t do well with disrespect in any form.

The AMVCA-winning actress noted that she has given away millions without anyone knowing and admonished trolls not to play with her.

Cautioning them, Bimbo stressed that she is just one person and can’t satisfy everyone’s desire.

“While I understand that the economy is tough and a lot of us need money, I also understand that you guys love me dearly and have poured that love into watching this movie (I mean, I could never get 10 million views in 10 days on my own ), so you feel you deserve the giveaway more than the next person. I need you to understand that I’m only one person; there are 5.1 million of you here! If I could, I’d give every single one of my followers the money without stress, but that would be a total of 510 billion naira! I no get, my papa no get, my forefathers no get! I’m only doing the little I can from MY POCKET! So, for some of you to attack me, screaming favouritism when I ensure my friends and family don’t participate in my giveaways so it doesn’t look like I’m biased, some people even came to my dm recently saying my giveaways are fake, hurling insults at me, one even called me “stingy goat”. I think that’s out of line! I do not do well with disrespect at all, public figure or no public figure; I do not appreciate disrespect in any way, shape or form. We might kiki, catch a cruise and all, but when you cross the line, I can be petty enough to find you, then we can handle it one-on-one! Pls let’s be guided! LET US ALL BE GUIDED! I’ve given out millions without a single soul knowing. This giveaway is to give back to my people and have fun while at it. Pls DO NOT play with me!! I have never, in my life, met or known anyone who has won my giveaway before they won it. Not once! Caution guys! Caution!
Anyways, congratulations to @datsweetclassybae. Pls send your details for the 200k and a Winston Leather bag. You won the last question.

NEXT QUESTION for 100k and a @gbemisokeshoes bag! What designer inspired this braided tie? And what’s the significant difference in this outfit? Look closely, it’s NOT THE HAIR NOR THE BAG!”

Less than two weeks into the marriage, Tumininu called Angel out over infidelity. Alleging that Angel is cheating on her with another woman she met on a dating app.


The development has sparked public criticism, with many Nigerians condemning Angel’s mother for giving out her daughter in a same-sex marriage.

Reacting on his insta story, he applauded men for their ability to tolerate women’s behavior in marriage.

He wrote; “Men are really trying when it comes to marriage matters! A woman got married to another woman, and the marriage didn’t even last 70 hours. She couldn’t handle what the other woman was doing.”
