“She supported Tinubu who has held Lagos hostage for 20 yrs” — Toyin Abraham bashed over movie role in Gangs of Lagos

Popular Nollywood actress, Toyin Abraham continues to face backlashes over her support for Tinubu with respect to her role in the latest movie, Gangs of Lagos.

It would be recalled that during the 2023 presidential elections, the actress unapologetically supported the president-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and has since been ridiculed for it.

A Twitter user identified as Adetutu Balogun pointed out that Toyin Abraham played the role of a politician that fought tirelessly for the freedom of the oppressed. However, in reality, she stands against the character portrayed in the Gang of Lagos by supporting the APC party.

“Nollywood will act but will not learn from it. In Gangs of Lagos,
@ToyinAbraham contested as a Gov. She was fighting a family that has held the state hostage for 20yrs. She wanted a change! In real life Toyin supported “Asiwaju baby” who has held Lagos hostage for 20 yrs+!” she wrote.

@Morris_Monye noted: “They will be fine. The Lagos people are content with illegal taxes via agberos , traffic robbery, bad roads etc.”
