Nigerian actress and filmmaker, Toyin Abraham has furiously addressed those who
opined that she is richer than her husband who is also an actor, Kolawole
Ajeyemi.
Kolawole
recently took delivery of a brand new SUV in celebration of his birthday, and
some naysayers believe that his wife, Toyin gifted it to him, as it is believed
that he is not rich enough.
In an
Instagram post she shared, Toyin stated that she won’t allow anyone to talk
down on her husband as he is a hardworking man who has been doing a lot for her
and their kids.
She said: “I don’t
usually do this and I am only going to address this just once and I hope this
ends here. People need to stop this mentality that famous people or the more
famous ones are the richest in their family, relationships, or even friendships. Just
because some people do not like to blow their own horns doesn’t mean they
should be seen as less or incapable.
“I’m speaking up
because I won’t let people talk down on my husband who is a very hard-working
man and is doing a lot for me and the kids. Do not ridicule his hard work and
what he stands for. Everything he has, he’s worked for with
his own sweat and he deserves it. I am the last born of my family and you’d
think I’m the richest just because I’m famous which is far from the truth.
“It
is 2022 please, we need to do better and stop this ill-mannered mentality.
Celebrate people without trying to pitch them against another person or
ridicule their hard work or give credit to another. It’s so old and needs to
stop.”
