The end seems not to be heard about the open confrontation mounted up by Toyin Abraham’s estranged husband, Adeniyi Johnson.
He had put up an Instagram story on Wednesday pleading with his former wife to hasten up their divorce case in court because he alleged Toyin was intentionally delaying the process.
But in response to Adeniyi’s claims, Toyin’s publicist, Sam Olatunji has debunked all Adeniyi said and punctured some of his claim.
According to Olatunji, Adeniyi is ignorant of some court processes and was reluctant to take the move on their divorce initially.
To Olatunji, Toyin paid over a million naira because Niyi was deterred by the huge cost!

“Dear Niyi Johnson, I’m forced to respond to you here because you mentioned my name, so I will be returning the favour. In all my years of dealing with the entertainment industry, I carefully avoid the drama that goes with the terrain. And this includes years of dealing with big brands.
Some of these brands have warned me to avoid some people from the Yoruba industry because of the attendant, unnecessary drama and here you are proving them right and giving the noble Yoruba industry bad name. You have my number, you have the number of the lawyer, and I believe you have Toyin’s number as well. This unnecessary call for attention and social media shenanigans are unnecessary.
You see why people don’t dignify your ilk with phone calls, sms or courtesy, it always end on social media. People are doing great things in real life not Instagram drama.
Two, a simple call to your lawyer would tell you that what Lawyer Bosun called you for is the beginning of trial (court proceedings) not to come and sign divorce papers. Divorce doesn’t work like that. Three, if you despeserately want a divorce, you should have filed one not Toyin; perhaps the over 1m naira cost deterred you.
Toyin, chose to bear the cost, pay her lawyer the fee and has taken the case to a considerable point. She has shown more commitment to the divorce proceedings than you. In more than three years of separation you just filed a ‘cross-petition’ last month while she has been at it in the court for over a year.
She has ‘allowed you go’ a long time and we all can see what that has done to her life and career. Please come down from your Instagram high horse, real court issues happen outside of social media. She changed lawyer and he has moved faster than we anticipated. It was out of courtesy that I called you to ask for your address. I told you I’d call for if there is any new development.
And a piece of advise from me, you need to stop using your past relationship to generate talkability, you have talents and new relationship, they should be enough. That is what you should focus on; stop focusing on what you don’t have, what you have should be enough. Selah!
