Toyin Abraham reveals she will now keep her political choice private
Following a social media exchange on X on Tuesday, Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham says she has learned her lesson and has chosen to keep her political affiliations private going forward.
In a series of responses, the actress clarified the assurances that President Bola Tinubu had given her during the general election campaign of 2023.
The exchange began when an X user identified as Otunba (@ManLikeIcey), wrote, “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.”
Abraham responded by revealing that Tinubu’s camp had assured her of “good governance and happiness for everyone.”
“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 wish I believe,” she stated.
However, Abraham’s directness was accompanied by a cautionary note, as she expressed reluctance to bear the brunt of public scrutiny should the promises fail to materialize.
“If things didn’t go well why do I have to be the one to suffer for it because I remember I voted (ex-president) Jonathan and I was bullied but I didn’t put blame on anyone after everyone chose (ex-president) Buhari. So please why would they be cursing and trolling me every time,” she implored
Otunba questioned further, “Thank you for your prompt response. Do you believe he has failed at the moment in governance or not?”
Toyin Abraham replied, “I have faced my life and career cos I am not a politician and I’m not in government, I have learnt my lesson never ever to be open with my choice again.”
