‘I became a millionaire in Lagos as an Edo babe’- Toyin Abraham speaks on why she’s rooting for Sanwo-Olu

Despite the criticism she has received, Nollywood actress and filmmaker Toyin Abraham-Ajeyemi has persisted in advocating for the re-election of Babajide Sanwo-Olu as governor of Lagos State on behalf of the APC.

The mother of one, who has not wavered in the face of any criticism, hinted on Twitter a few hours ago that Lagos state is somehow connected to her achievement.

"Lagos State, where as an Edo girl, I became a millionaire. Sanwo Once Again. A Sanwo Eko. a good governor. It's my decision," she tweeted.

It may be recalled that Toyin Abraham faced backlash on social media after publicly endorsing Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the president-elect.

Some of her supporters even threatened to avoid seeing her movie in theaters.

In response to all of the complaints, Toyin Abraham stated that she had made her decision about a presidential candidate voluntarily and had not been pressured to support or vote for any party.

Additionally, she hinted in her mother tongue a few days ago that if she was paid to cast a vote, the preferences of her followers would matter to her. She prayed for protection from death as well.

Ti mo ba gba owo, imo yin ase le mi Lori, but if it's just up to me, gbagbe eni ti o je gbi ko le ku gbiEmi oluwatoyin dada mi o ni ku gbi ati pe irawo mi ko ni wo omi.

This means: If I acquire money, I'll grant your request, but if it's just my decision and nothing else, I'll forget that a person who eats gbi can't die. I Oluwatoyin good I won't pass away and my star won't float away.
