She made the disclosure on Twitter while responding to a fan @Ogaknowledge, who questioned her over the president-elect’s victory.
The user asked, “Aunty Toyin, is Tinubu really the people’s choice?, Did he really win the election?”
In her response, the actress said, “Yes darling, he is. A lot of people are just scared of bullies and curses, so they didn’t say anything online, but they voted for him. I know a lot like that. Imagine all the curses I got, but it’s fine it’s all past tense now. At least he is our President, so let’s all just focus.
“Let’s focus on building and making our country great. Hope that answers your question, my love.”
Recall that the actress was called out, insulted, and trolled on social media for supporting the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate.

The statement was made in response to the EFCC’s plea for public empathy following the death of one of its officials during a night raid in Anambra State.
Bobrisky took to Instagram Stories on Monday to air grievances against the anti-corruption agency, accusing it of hypocrisy.
“I just don’t like reading about the EFCC online because I feel like I want to throw up each time I read about them,” Bobrisky wrote.
The controversial figure alleged mistreatment during a prior encounter with the EFCC, sharing that the agency had detained and searched Bobrisky’s house on suspicion of money laundering.
“You’re asking the public to be human over the loss of your staff, but you are the most wicked people in Nigeria,” Bobrisky claimed.
Describing the experience further, Bobrisky stated, “When I was in your custody, you took me to my house and searched it, claiming I was printing money. The police are 100% better than you all, one million times.”
The EFCC, known for its high-profile investigations into financial crimes, often faces scrutiny for its methods and operations.
Bobrisky’s remarks have sparked a heated debate online, with fans and critics alike sharing their opinions on the controversial post.

The ‘Soundtrack’ crooner shared the details during an episode of The Honest Bunch podcast, revealing a surprising chapter of his life abroad.
May D disclosed that after relocating to Sweden, he became a “house husband,” staying at home to take care of their child while his wife worked.
Despite not holding a traditional job, he earned more from his music shows than his wife did in her working career.
“I went to Sweden for a show but decided to settle down there since my girlfriend was Swedish. I was a house husband. What do you want me to do? I should go and work?” he explained.
“My wife was working but when I go for a show, I make five times what she earns in a month. I was a house husband but I was comfortable. I had my baby, my wife can’t be the one taking care of the baby and working at the same time.”
However, the marriage came to an end during the COVID-19 lockdown. May D explained that he was stuck in Nigeria at the time, which led to his wife filing for divorce.
“We got divorced during COVID-19 because I got stuck in Nigeria. That was how she divorced me. You know they think different from us,” he said.
May D’s candid revelation sheds light on the challenges faced in international relationships, particularly during the pandemic, and provides a glimpse into his life as both a father and a musician.
