Top Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham has cleared the air on the alleged competition and beef between her colleague Funke Akindele.

Toyin Abraham and Funke Akindele had tongues wagging earlier this month when they both chose the same date, September 10, 2021, to release their movies, ‘Ghost and the tout too’ in the cinemas and ‘Omo Ghetto the saga’ on Netflix.

Actress Iyabo Ojo further fueled the rivalry by calling out Funke Akindele days after the movies were released for paying a popular movie citric to ruin Toyin Abraham’s movie.

In a recent interview, Toyin Abraham debunked having any issue with Funke Akindele stating that the mother of two is among the people she respects in the Nollywood industry.

According to Toyin Abraham, Funke Akindele is her senior colleague, and she respects her so much, but many people always mistake family, friends and colleagues.

Toyin Abraham added that she cannot be friends with everybody in the Nollywood industry.

Toyin Abraham started acting in 2003, when Nigerian actress Bukky Wright came to Ibadan to film a film. Toyin Abraham has made, directed, and starred in several Nigerian films over the years, including Alani Baba Labake and Ebimi ni.

On the other hand, Funke Akindele came into the limelight after starring in popular United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA)-sponsored sitcom I Need to Know, which ran from 1998 to 2002.
