Actress and filmmaker Toyin Abraham has responded to allegations of owing an online fashion designer millions.
Toyin dismissed the claims as a “complete misunderstanding” and untrue details.
The designer took to social media to vent frustrations over alleged unpaid debts totalling millions, implicating Toyin Abraham, Annie Idibia and Gabriel Anthony.
“@toyin_abraham @annieidibial @gabrielanthonys, my patience is running out already. 1 year and 2 months. How can you be with someone’s millions and feel so reluctant,” the fashion designer wrote.
However, Toyin Abraham clarified the situation on Instagram, revealing that the dresses in question were borrowed for her production, Malaika and returned to Gabriel Anthony.
Gabriel Anthony corroborated Toyin’s account, confirming that he informed the designer the dresses had been returned and borrowed by someone else.
“Hello everyone, I want to address the recent allegations about an unpaid debt to a fashion designer. The situation has been completely misunderstood. During the production of Malaika, there was a runway scene, and we needed dresses. We contacted a couple of designers, including Tiannah, to provide the dresses.
“Additionally, Gabriel, who was part of the team, mentioned that a friend of his also wanted to contribute some dresses, and she did. I even bought a hairpiece from her, for which I paid in full. As for the dresses she provided, they were borrowed for the shoot, and once we finished using them, I handed them back to Gabriel, who brought them to us.
