Toyin Alausa warns colleagues

Also in the post, Toyin pointed out that it was not good to tear down people, who have poured in time, resources, and money into a project and building something extraordinary out of it.

She further noted that people should stop generalising because the actress, who prayed for Timini weeks ago, is a hardworking woman. A visionary and pacesetter who lift others.

Funke Akindele reacts to criticism

Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG had reported that the Nollywood actress shared a video where she was praying seriously in the Yoruba language.
