Toyin Abraham Publicly Snubs Funke Akindele After Premiere Incident

Renowned Nigerian actress Toyin Abraham has vowed never to greet fellow star Funke Akindele again, following an awkward public snub at a high-profile movie premiere.

The incident occurred during the premiere of Iyabo Ojo’s latest film on Sunday night. Toyin reportedly approached Funke, greeting her warmly: “Aunty Funke, good evening ma,” while tapping her hand. Funke, however, ignored the gesture completely and looked away, sparking visible discomfort.

Feeling embarrassed, Toyin walked away without escalating the situation. A video of the encounter quickly went viral on social media, igniting debates about professionalism, respect, and “negative energy” in Nollywood circles.

Reacting to the viral video on Instagram, Toyin disclosed that she has unfollowed Funke and publicly vowed never to greet her again. She commented, in a now-deleted post, “I have unfollowed her, God forbid bad things. If I ever greet her again that means I’m a bastard.”

The feud has generated significant online attention, with fans and followers weighing in on the fallout between two of Nollywood’s biggest stars.
