It would seem it is another season for serious celebrity feud as Nollywood actresses Toyin Abraham and Liz Anjorin will not stop hanging on each other’s throats.
The two successful celebrities has since Sunday, September 15, 2019 making headlines with their feuding.
It all started when Anjorin accused Abraham of sponsoring a post against her by a blogger and also disguising as a fan to taint her image. She therefore took to her instagram page to rain insult at Abraham.

Abraham however, denied the allegations and on Monday, September 16, 2019, took legal actions against Anjorin. She took to her instagram page where she shared a copy of the ‘cease and desist’ notice letter. However, in her usual controversial style, Toyin Abraham called Liz Anjorin a pig, in the caption of the post.
In the letter, ‘Toyin Abraham brought to Liz Anjorin’s notice the post she shared on her Instagram page on Sept 14, 2019, where she accused her of sponsoring an article against her.
“You alleged that security officials at the Saudi airport conducted a search on your person for hard drugs ostensibly acting on a tip-off from our client. The evidence you have against our client is simply because one of her fans with Instagram handle @m_adeoye had a tete-a-tete about you with a blog @gistlover.blog1. You unfathomably assumed the blog belongs to our client, that our client sponsored the article,” the statement reads.
It didn’t end there as Toyin Abraham’s lawyers revealed that Liz Anjorin’s attack on their client has led to some serious and irreparable injuries. It also says that it has exposed Toyin Abraham to hatred, contempt, and ridicule which has made some of her friends to avoid her.

They finally advised Liz Anjorin to cease and desist from publishing defamatory statements against their client. Delete all aforementioned malicious post and publish a letter of apology to their client.
It also requests Liz Anjorin to forward a letter of apology to Toyin Abraham via their office. Finally, Toyin Abraham’s lawyer said this is the last warning to Liz Anjorin and if she fails to reply in 24 hours, they would be forced to file a N500M damages legal action against her.
Anjorin, not intending to back down, responded to Toyin Abraham calling her a bastard hours after Abraham’s letter was uploaded.
She also took to her instagram page on Tuesday, September 17, 2019, posting a letter from her lawyers, demanding an apology from Abraham for libelous and malicious statements made concerning her.
In a six minutes long interview with Gboah TV, Anjorin alleged that she has no issues with Toyin Abraham other than her inability to curb her fans.
Anjorin said Abraham has grown her social media followers to attack her fellow colleagues and fail to render help when needed.
She also made several allegations on the place of birth of Toyin Abraham and Kolawole Ajewole’s son claiming the baby was delivered in Nigeria.
Anjorin insisted that she has a pure heart and that was why she has decided to respond to Abraham.
Throughout her response, Anjorin failed to identify her grouse with Abraham but repeatedly referred to her as a bastard.
The actress also alleged that Abraham wrote to the drug law enforcement agency in Nigeria, NDLEA to frisk her when she was traveling to Saudi Arabia.
The President of the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN), Bolaji Amusan, popularly known as Mr. Latin, has however, intervened by calming both actresses’ fans down.
Mr. Latin’s decision to make clarifications is coming after fans attacked the association with the tales of the two actresses being members.
In his take, Mr. Latin, in an Instagram post on Monday, September 16, 2019, says there is little or nothing TAMPAN can do.
Mr. Latin also insinuated that the actresses aren’t members of the theatre arts association but promised to find a lasting solution to the ongoing feud.
