Toyin Abraham,
Nollywood actress and movie producer, says she started making money four years
ago — about 13 years after she began her acting career in 2003.
The award-winning
movie star brought the revelation to light when she featured on ‘Your View’, a
TVC programme, monitored by the TheCable Lifestyle on Friday.
Speaking on the
show, Abraham said she would not have been able to help people as she is
presently doing during the COVID-19 lockdown, if it was five years ago.
“If this (referring
to the COVID-19 lockdown) had happened five years ago, I wouldn’t have been
able to give because I was not making money then. I just started making money
three or four years ago,” she said.
According to her,
the novel disease has taken a huge toll on countries across the globe, adding
that people are only thinking about survival now.
“There is nothing
that matters now except how to survive. After this coronavirus, if people don’t
change, then they have a problem. My car and that of my husband have been
parked for days now, there’s nothing like competition again,” she added.
She went on to
reveal measures being put in place to ensure that those who benefit from her
giveaways online are people in need.
“Before I give
people money, I check their social media accounts to know when they came into
into existence,” she said.
The 34-year-old
actress also narrated how her marriage to Kolawole Ajeyemi, fellow movie star,
and her motherhood experience have changed her life.
“It (referring to
motherhood) is a new experience and it’s has really changed me. I can tell
anybody now that I am a woman coupled with the fact that I married to a good
man. My name now is mummy Ire. Motherhood has changed my life,” she added.
Abraham made
headlines recently after some reports suggested she was an ambassador for the
Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) on the coronavirus pandemic, after
she had appeared in a video sensitising people on COVID-19.
