Recall that the Internet awoke to the rants of Nigerian actress, Toyin Abraham‘s ex-husband, Niyi Johnson where he accused his ex- wife of slowing down their divorce process saying she should sign the papers and let him go. (Read Here)
Well, it doesn’t seem the drama is ending anytime soon for since the first shot was fired, there’s been counter accusations.
The actress’ publicist, Samuel Olatunji took to social media to fire back at his boss’ ex-husband saying if he wanted a divorce, he should have filed for one.
Olatunji, popularly called ‘Big Sam’ advised Niyi Johnson to come down from his Instagram high horse and gain needed understanding of how a divorce process works. He accused Niyi of not filing for the divorce because he could not afford the N1M legal fee to do so.

“Dear Niyi Johnson, I’m forced to respond to you here because you mentioned my name,so I will be returning the favour. In all my years of dealing with the entertainment industry, I carefully avoid the drama that goes with the terrain. And this includes years of dealing with big brands.
Some of these brands have warned me to avoid some people from the Yoruba industry because of the attendant, unnecessary drama and here you are proving them right and giving the noble Yoruba industry bad name. You have my number, you have the number of the lawyer, and I believe you have Toyin’s number as well. This unnecessary call for attention and social media shenanigans are unnecessary.
You see why people don’t dignify your ilk with phone calls, sms or courtesy, it always end on social media. People are doing great things in real life not Instagram drama.
Two, a simple call to your lawyer would tell you that what Lawyer Bosun called you for is the beginning of trial (court proceedings) not to come and sign divorce papers. Divorce doesn’t work like that. Three, if you depserately want a divorce, you should have filed one not Toyin; perhaps the over 1m naira cost deterred you.
Toyin, chose to bear the cost, pay her lawyer the fee and has taken the case to a considerable point. She has shown more commitment to the divorce proceedings than you. In more than three years of separation you just filed a ‘cross petition’ last month while she has been at it in the court for over a year.
She has ‘allowed you go’ a long time and we all can see what that has done to her life and career. Please come down from your Instagram high horse, real court issues happen outside of social media. She changed lawyer and he has moved faster than we anticipated. It was out of courtesy that I called you to ask for your address. I told you I’d call for if there is any new development.
And a piece of advise from me, you need to stop using your past relationship to generate talkability, you have talents and new relationship, they should be enough. That is what you should focus on; stop focusing on what you don’t have, what you have should be enough. Selah! Today is my birthday, stop by for a drink please.”

Not intending to let matters lie low, Niyi has since re-fired at Olatunji claiming that after the duo of Toyin and Olatunji had sent several people to calm him down, they were just coming online to respond to his allegations.
