Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham Ajeyemi has reportedly taken legal action against a social media user who made a death wish against her son.
According to a source named Reedah, who is close to the Twitter user, Toyin Abraham has had the user arrested for cyberbullying and defamation.
The user, who had been harassing Toyin online, was reportedly arrested 4 days ago by police from Lagos, who came to apprehend him for his actions.
This comes after Toyin faced intense backlash for her support of President Tinubu during the general election.
“Hello am Reedah and Yarlo is my friend. Heard from his mom he has been arrested since 4 days ago. Heard the police came from Lagos to arrest him. They said he was cyber bullying Toyin Abraham. Pls any help you can render will deeply appreciate you”, the message reads.
Before his arrest, the Twitter user, while engaged in a heated exchange with Toyin Abraham, had made a disturbing comment, telling her to use him as a scapegoat and even went as far as to wish death on her son.
He tweeted, “So na you Dem promise good governance on behalf of Nigeria? Onijere seh. Your son go kpai soon”.
He added, “Use me as first scapegoat” and Toyin Abraham had responded promising to use him as one. She replied, “Okay then since you say I should use you, then your wish is my command”.
