Actor and producer, Matini Animashaun has berated his colleague, Yomi Fabiyi for falsely accusing him of having an affair with Toyin Abraham-Ajeyemi, a married woman.
Debunking the claims, Animashaun, who managed Toyin Abraham in 2016, said: “I maintain a professional relationship with Toyin Abraham. I managed Toyin’s career in 2016. Nothing but a working relationship exists between Toyin and I. So, Yomi, your tales are baseless and lack any factual foundation.”
He continued: “There is also no truth to the rumour that Toyin and I own and run Gistlover. I understand that misinformation can spread quickly, but I assure you that these rumours are unfounded. I urge the media to exercise caution and adhere to journalistic integrity by verifying facts before publishing. It’s also important to note that spreading false information damages the reputation of the individuals involved and perpetuates a culture of misinformation. To set the record straight, I am a Nollywood actor and producer and I run Tinimash Films Productions. I value transparency and open communication, and addressing any misconceptions is important.”
Asked to respond to the allegation, Yomi Fabiyi told this reporter: “I am busy taking a nap. It’s not everybody screaming my name that I will respond to. I will advise you to stop communicating with me. Kindly respect my privacy.”
