Daniel Regha snubbed Toyin Abraham
Toyin Abraham, the prominent actress, and controversial Twitter user, Daniel Regha, had a friendly debate about her film “Ijakumo.”
It all began when the actress requested to meet with Daniel Regha at an event where they were both guests in order to discuss the film in depth after he posted a poor review online.
My darling @DanielRegha hope to see you today face to face at trendupp awards so you can kindly tell me where you need me to improve in film making🙏🙏I saw your tweet on IJAKUMO and I will be happy to see you so you can tell me where and where to work on. Hope to see other…

The mother of one had expressed her want to see Regha at the Trend Up Awards so that he could advise her on how to improve the film.
Daniel went online over a day after she shared the post and the event had concluded to answer to her request and explain why he didn’t honor her meet-up invitation.
Hi @toyin_abraham1, I was repeatedly told u wanted to see me, but I chose to ignore cos while I respect u as an actress, u supporting this govt after the EndSARS protests, goes against everything I stand for. That said, "Ijakumo" movie was poorly written & directed. No offense.

He claimed he purposefully avoided her because he dislikes her support for the ruling party, despite the ENDSARs episode. He also reiterated his earlier claim that the film fell short of expectations.
