The actress also thanked her devoted fan base, the Toyin Titans, for their constant encouragement and support.
She wrote:
“I am the one who has come back to say, Thank You. Thank You, God, for this extraordinary personal career milestone, a moment that feels like heaven smiling down on me. Your grace is undeniable, and I stand in awe of Your faithfulness.
“To every single soul who has taken the time to watch Alakada Bad and Boujee, thank you from the depths of my heart. Your love and support have breathed life into this project, and I’m eternally grateful.

In a adifferent story, Toyin Abraham explained why King Sunny Ade was featured in her most recent film, “Alakada! Bad and Boujee.”
Portable, Isbae U, and Opeyemi Famakin were among the star-studded cast members of the film, which was released in theatres across the country on December 20.
Abraham clarified in a Nollywood on Radio interview that the legendary juju singer was specifically chosen to give the narrative a more genuine feel.
According to the film’s producer, she aimed to create a singular experience and surprise audiences with something “unbelievable.”
Working with Sunny Ade was “one of the best things that happened to me in 2024,” Abraham said, despite the difficulties she faced in getting him on board.
“I featured Sunny Ade because I wanted a different feel. I wanted the movie to be real because we are portraying the cast called Madam Sharon, who is wealthy, lives large, and wants to throw a party,” she said.
“Everybody knows I am very close to Pasuma, and I have featured him, Saheed Osupa, and Malaika in a film before. Also, Mercy Aigbe featured Adewale Ayuba in her film last year. So, I wanted something different, something people would not believe.
“It was not easy getting him but I did and I can say it is one of the best things that happened to me in 2024 because he is such a father.
“He was paid but I will not say I paid him because that is not his fee but he came and was professional.”
