Nollywood actress and filmmaker Toyin Abraham has opened up about losing a pregnancy of almost four months while working on a movie and how Pastor Bolaji Idowu supported her during the difficult period.
Abraham shared the experience at the Bestie Jesu Concert 2026 in Lagos on Saturday, where she spoke about the miscarriage and the emotional challenges that followed.
The actress said the pregnancy loss happened while she was on a movie set, leaving her devastated as she still had filming commitments.
“I was 4 months, but I lost it. But guess what, I was filming, so I was down,” she said.
Abraham said she initially struggled with the decision to inform her parents, particularly her mother, whom she described as elderly.
“I didn’t want to call my parents; you know how it is that you don’t want to… my parents, my mom is old, and I didn’t want to call my mom,” Abraham stated.
She explained that she first informed her husband, who was not nearby at the time, before deciding to contact Pastor Bolaji Idowu of Harvesters International Christian Centre.
“I just told my husband, but that day he was far away, and guess who I called? I just called Pastor Bolaji. He just started praying, and he said, ‘Where are you?’ I said, ‘I’m on my way to the hospital,’” she said.

According to Abraham, she told the pastor that doctors were preparing to perform an evacuation procedure following the pregnancy loss.
“He said, ‘What’s going to happen?’ I said, ‘They want to do an evacuation.’ And Pastor Bolaji sent me millions,” she said.
The actress expressed appreciation to the cleric for his prayers and financial assistance during the ordeal.
“Thank you so much, Pastor Bolaji. God bless you.”
