Toyin Abraham blows hot on movie critic who condemned “The Prophetess”

Actress Toyin Abraham has finally responded to the criticism she got from fans following the cinema screening of “The Prophetess” today. Toyin had announced that “The Prophetess” where she played the role of a prophetess which is the major role in the movie, will be aired on Cinemas today and many people anticipated it.

After viewing it, a movie critic called “Cinema Pointer” bashed the movie on Instagram.

“Not Recommended. Chaotic and noisy, ‘The Prophetess’ is One Hundred and Forty Four minutes of nonsense.” he said

Reacting to these criticisms, Toyin slammed Cinema Pointer.

She wrote,

“I can bet my life that you’re someone in the industry that does not like me cause I’m doing great and you cannot stop me. Any movie I act in or produce, you always trash it. I’m sure you thought I produced prophetess but no I didn’t produce, I only acted in it. I have my audience and market, I keep feeding them.”

“My darling, making 130 million during the pandemic and end sars is not a joke and being number one on Netflix for weeks is not a fluke. Prophetess is about Nigeria, for Nigerians and made by Nigerians, (Mr Niyi Akinmolayan)and you say bad things about it. Cinemapointer, whoever you are and whoever paid you, I leave you to your conscience.”

“And lastly, like I said, I am a brand and I know my market and I willing never stop feeding my market. Peace and love.
NB: we won’t bribe your the way others are bribing you, so keep saying trash; but let God judge you. If you want me to really believed your reviews, my darling show your face.”

Her response seems to have fanned the flames as people compared her with Genevieve Nnaji who made $3.5m from a comedy and Funke Akindele who made N650M from a comedy movie while she is boasting of N130M.
