The incident left Toyin Abraham embarrassed, and she later unfollowed Funke Akindele on Instagram, vowing never to greet her again. Funke responded by unfollowing Toyin as well.
On 1 April, veteran actress Madam Saje shared a video message on her Instagram page, announcing that she had mediated between the two movie stars and that the matter had been settled.

She explained that her new project, Love Between Two Altars, would premiere on Tuesday, 7 April, on Toyin Abraham TV on YouTube.
The actress then assured her loyal fan base, known as ToyinTitans, of her love and appreciation, before making a humble plea.

“Hi my lovely fans, Love Between Two Altars will start showing on Tuesday, 7th of April on Toyin Abraham TV on YouTube.
