In response to the snub, Toyin Abraham unfollowed Funke Akindele online and made it clear she would never greet her again. She expressed her frustration strongly, saying that she would rather be called offensive names than offer another greeting to the actress.
The drama drew attention from fans online. An influencer, Bolanle Seun Ore, stepped forward to support Toyin Abraham by posting the actress’ photo along with words of encouragement, emphasising that she is loved and valued at home.
Bolanle Seun Ore wrote:
“I advocate for peace a lot but at this point am done!!! Oluwatoyin, you are loved at home.. Nothing do you omomi.”
