Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham has opened up about what she described as a calculated attempt to undermine her latest cinema release, Oversabi Aunty.

The award-winning actress made the claims during an emotional Instagram Live session on Friday, December 26, 2025.

She accused some cinemas of deliberately sabotaging the commercial performance of her film.

Speaking directly to her followers, Toyin described what she believes is happening behind the scenes.

“I am not making money. They sell another ticket to people and take them to my movie hall,” she said, adding that she had gathered evidence to back her claims.

According to the actress, who recently got into a controversy, some individuals within the cinema business are afraid to speak out openly due to fear of intimidation.

She added: “I have a lot of evidence. Some people cannot come out because they are afraid of bullies."

Toyin further alleged that Oversabi Aunty was deliberately assigned unfavourable screening times that could hurt ticket sales.

She asked: “Some cinemas will give you 10 am and 9 pm. A 10 am showtime, how do you expect it to sell?” She also claimed that some cinema staff allegedly misled customers by telling them her movie was sold out when it was not.

She stated: “Some people will go to the cinema, you will tell them Oversabi Aunty is sold out and that they can watch another movie, meanwhile Oversabi Aunty is not sold out."

Clearly emotional, Toyin reminded viewers of the effort she invested in the project, stressing that the film deserved a fair chance.

She shared: “I produced a good movie. I directed it. I did a lot of content to promote it."

The actress, who has enjoyed major box office success in recent years, suggested that the situation was discouraging, especially after months of planning, shooting, and marketing.
