Toyin Abraham clears air after Kolawole Ajeyemi’s cheating allegations

Posted: 17 Mar 2022 04:00 AM PDT

Actress and multi brand ambassador Toyin Abraham has shared a video of herself giving her husband, Kolawole Ajeyemi an assuring kiss while on her way to a move premiere today.

Sharing the clip on Instagram moments ago, the mum of one wrote "On my way to support @biodunstephen on the press screening of her new movie A SIMPLE LIE. I had to give a kiss to oko mi @kolawoleajeyemi before leaving

https://www.instagram.com/tv/CbH6knJjtDP/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

this is coming after a rumour broke out over the weekend alleging that Kolawole Ajeyemi is cheating on Toyin Abraham.

Over the weekend, gossip platform, Gist Lover had claimed that a certain actress' husband was cheating on her with a junior colleague.

"All these Nollywood girls will not cease to amaze me, you are sleeping with a person's husband and you still have the guts to call her momma, you are all over her comment section……their meeting point is one hotel in Abeokuta, the so-called shameless husband whom his wife feeds, is not faithful, always using hoodie to cover his face….my eyes are on you…but i feel for the wife, she is not lucky, this kind of husband again, God forbid…I will bring evidence soon but until then, let decoders do their work" the gossip platform posted as seen in screenshot below:


Many of the followers began insinuating and speculating that the cheating husband is Kolawole Ajeyemi especially as he fits the said description; he wears hoodies a lot and is always attacked online for living off Toyin Abraham.

It will be recalled that Toyin Abraham was previously married to Adeniyi Johnson but the union fell apart after Adeniyi Johnson couldn't stay faithful and was always sleeping around.

Obviously unbothered by the speculations, Toyin Abraham has now shut down gossip mongers by giving her husband an assuring kiss.
