Toyin Abraham takes action against movie leaks

Nollywood actress and filmmaker Toyin Abraham recently revealed that her latest movie, ‘Malaika,’ faced an unfortunate leak just three days into the new year.

The actress swiftly took action against the perpetrators to curb the unauthorised distribution and piracy of the film with the help of her team and the Nigerian police force to arrest culprits.

Toyin disclosed that the culprits behind the leak were also involved in pirating numerous cinema movies, streaming content, and even YouTube videos.

She emphasised on the negative impact piracy has on filmmakers and the industry at large while also citing a reduction in spending by streaming platforms due to the lack of trust in achieving subscription targets amid piracy threats.

She urged individuals involved in uploading or aiding and abetting the piracy of movies on social media platforms like Telegram to cease their activities, emphasising the adverse effects on investments and the growth of the creative sector.

“Three (3) days into the new year, my movie, ‘Malaika’ was leaked online. My team quickly moved into action and ensured it was curbed but even at that, I was afraid and worried that another source may drop the movie,” she revealed.

“Upon fishing further, I noticed these guys also pirate many other cinema movies, streaming, and even YouTube content. How can the creative industry grow when some elements stay in one corner to cause us pain and destroy our investment? Streaming is cutting down on spending because they can’t trust that they will make the numbers and get the required subscription because of piracy.

For anyone uploading unlicensed content or even aiding and abetting by downloading illegally this is a call for you to stop.”

Toyin, however, acknowledged the efforts of her team and collaborators, including the distributor Film One, AIG Idowu Owohunwa, CP Atayero, CSP Kayode Emmanuel, SP Idris Sarumi, and their team members.

Mohbad’s brother demands apology from actors for hacking into his account

Younger brother of the late Hip Hop singer ( Ileri-Oluwa Aloba), Adura Aloba, has demanded public apology from actors, Yomi Fabiyi, Damola Ayinde and others, for allegedly having unauthorised access to his social media Tiktok account and using same to disrepute him or face legal action.

Adura said: “The hacking of my personal Tiktok account had led to fraudulent posts, interactions, and messages being attributed to me without my knowledge or consent.

“Yomi Fabiyi posted a petition claiming to have communicated directly with me and there was evidence of this.

“However, the alleged messages were orchestrated by Damola Ayinde, who used my compromised account. Despite the evidence circulating that these malicious actions were the work of Damola Ayinde, Fabiyi has consistently continued to publicly malign me.

“He even visited the Lagos State Police Command in Ikeja, but has also refused to withdraw his statements or tender an apology. Instead, he has persisted in tarnishing my name, which I find to be malicious.

“My primary goal is to prove my innocence and expose the malicious actions of those who have tried to tarnish my reputation.

“I also demand that Mr. Yomi Fabiyi ceases his defamatory actions, retract his statements, and issue a public apology for the harm he has caused me.

“I stand firm in my pursuit of justice and fairness, and I appreciate the public’s support as I fight to clear my name.”
