‘This is absolutely rubbish’ Toyin Abraham’s husband in trouble for rocking a Muslim outfit
Nollywood actor Kolawole Ajeyemi and husband to Toyin Abraham, has come under heavy criticism for wearing a Muslim outfit.
Kolawole Ajeyemi took to his Instagram page to announce his new movie, accompanied by a photo of himself wearing a Hijab, which did not sit well with many Nigerians.
Reacting to the post, some netizens blasted Kolawole Ajeyemi while expressing their displeasure over the outfit. See some of the reactions below:

Reacting to the backslashes that came with his first post, Kolawole Ajeyemi stated that movies reflect society and urged people to stop playing the role of deputy God.
According to the actor, the outfit is clearly for a movie and does not intend to insult the intelligence or religion of any person.
He further apologized to those who felt offended with the outfit; however, he pointed out that it is the duty of Nollywood stars to portray society and get it right to avoid the audience complaining about the movie production.
He wrote: My last post with me in hijab is off a movie set. Movie is a reflection of our society. Some people need
to stop playing the role of deputy God. This is a movie. No insulting intelligence or religion of any person.
Apologies to those offended but note this a movie and we are duty-bound to do it right because if we don’t do it
right, the audience will be the first to complain, so, can the over-zealous people please let us breathe.
