Nollywood actress Wumi Toriola recently made headlines after harshly criticizing those who inquired whether her upcoming film, Cinema, would be available on Telegram or YouTube.
The Yoruba actress, who has just ventured into Cinema production, released her first film this week. She hosted a star-studded premiere, with many of her colleagues in attendance, and shared a photo of her glamorous look at the event, which garnered admiration from numerous celebrities.
However, some of her fans, unable to afford watching the movie in theaters, asked if it would be uploaded to YouTube or if they could access a Telegram link to watch it illegally, prompting Toriola’s fierce reaction.
The comments infuriated the actress, prompting her to go on Instagram Live, where she angrily cursed out the individuals in her native dialect.
The video didn’t sit well with some netizens, who dragged her for her ghetto behavior.
