Nollywood actress Mo Bimpe has publicly expressed her pride and admiration for her elder sister and senior colleague, Toyin Abraham, as the latter celebrates an incredible new achievement in her career. Toyin recently announced that her new movie, Bhad and Boujee, has grossed over 205 million naira in just 10 days, making it the second highest-grossing Nollywood film of the weekend. With humility and gratitude, Toyin shared her journey of overcoming adversity and the challenges of being doubted by critics, stating that surpassing her previous records has always been her goal.
Reacting to the fantastic news, Mo Bimpe took to social media to shower her sister with love and praise. She celebrated Toyin’s growth and the grace of God evident in her life. Mo Bimpe shared a heartfelt message, writing, “HUGE I celebrate growth and God’s grace in your life Aunty mi @toyin_abraham. So proud and super happy for you ma.” She also extended a loving shout-out to Toyin’s husband, Kolawole Ajeyemi, praising him for being amazing and praying for continued blessings upon his life. “Well done pappy @kolawoleajeyemi you’re too amazing and may God continue to bless you, We love you,” Mo Bimpe added.
Toyin Abraham has indeed come a long way in her illustrious career. Despite facing challenges and detractors, she has continued to rise above and shine. In September, she publicly confronted a fan who tried to undermine her work by comparing her photoshoot for Ijakumo with Funke Akindele’s project. The fan questioned why Toyin always seemed to follow Funke’s lead, but Toyin responded strongly, expressing how tired she was of people belittling her hard work.
The bond between Mo Bimpe and Toyin is nothing short of heartwarming. Their relationship has often been described as that of a mother and daughter. In October, Mo Bimpe shared an affectionate post celebrating Toyin as her Woman Crush, expressing her gratitude for Toyin’s unwavering support of her career and dreams. Toyin, in turn, has always reassured Mo Bimpe of her deep, genuine love. In a touching tribute, Toyin referred to Mo Bimpe as her younger daughter, vowing that their bond was built on love that transcends social media.
Mo Bimpe, in return, has often referred to Toyin as her ‘small mummy,’ fondly teasing her about scolding her at times. Despite the playful scolding, Mo Bimpe consistently affirms her deep affection for Toyin and cherishes her like a mother. She has also humorously pleaded with Toyin to ease the stress on her husband, Kolawole Ajeyemi.
The strong bond between the two actresses stands in stark contrast to recent controversies, including a public spat between Mo Bimpe and actor Yomi Fabiyi. Fabiyi, who played a key role in Mo Bimpe’s rise to stardom, criticized her for allegedly choosing Toyin Abraham over him as a mentor. Despite such challenges, Mo Bimpe continues to stand by Toyin, further cementing their sisterly love and solidarity in the face of adversity.
As Toyin Abraham continues to break barriers in Nollywood, the love and support from Mo Bimpe remain unwavering, with fans eagerly watching the growth and success of this remarkable duo.
