    Bimbo Ademoye reacts to Toyin Abraham’s ‘hospital drama’

    Actress and filmmaker Bimbo Ademoye has playfully called out her colleague Toyin Abraham for pulling a hilarious prank on her.

    According to Bimbo, Toyin jokingly accused her of being uncaring after missing a phone call, claiming she was hospitalised and on oxygen.

    When Bimbo demanded video evidence, Toyin responded with a staged photo from a video call, featuring phone charger cables wrapped around her nose to mimic an oxygen tube, leaving Bimbo and fans in stitches.

    Sharing the hilarious moment on Instagram, she wrote: “Just because I missed & Toyin Abraham’s call once!! She started threatening me, saying i don’t care about her. I told this woman I’m on set and I cannot take calls. Next thing she says, ‘I’m in the hospital.’
