Toyin Abraham: Why I ignored Iyabo Ojo on social media after mum’s death

Nollywood actress, Toyin Abraham has opened up on why she has not yet condoled with colleague Iyabo Ojo on social media over her mother’s death.

Recall that Iyabo Ojo took to social media last Saturday to announce the death of her mother.

She wrote at the time:

“My mother, my jewel, my guardian, my pearl, this is how you said goodbye? We were joking about this days ago. I told you how much I want you to live long and watch the children become grown men and women but you said no; your joy was that I am happy. That your spirit would protect and be with us. Little did I know you were set to leave.

“With total submission to the will of God, I announce the death of my mother, Mrs Victoria Olubunmi Fetuga, who passed away in her sleep in the early hours of today, Saturday 21st November at the age of 67-years. Mama, you might be gone but we, your children and grandkids would make sure your memories remain and linger on. Like you promised, your spirit remains with us. Iyabo Ojo, your love.”

Her colleagues in the movies industry took to their respective messages to condole with her. But notable among all was Toyin Abraham who refused to reach out to the actress on her page.

A troll however noticed this and called her out.
