Toyin responded to the callout and claimed the X user was lying against her. According to her, she arrested the mother of another X user who actually said terrible things about her on social media. The detained parent’s child is friends with the person currently dragging her online.
Toyin went on to say that while she could tolerate being mistreated and called names, she draws the line at people cursing her children and lying about her.
She clarified that she never arrested his mother but filed a cybercrime report as a concerned citizen.
The Twitter user further claimed that the actress had picked up his mother from her shop and taken her to Panti police station, asking God to judge her actions.
The man wrote:
“It’s one thing to make a tweet, and you arrest me. It’s another thing to arrest me for not even making a single comment, @toyin_abraham1. You picked my mom up from her shop to Panti police station for something I didn’t even do. God will judge you”.
