Toyin Abraham's publicist fires back at her ex-hubby, Adeniyi Johnson who accused her of refusing to sign their divorce papers

Toyin Abraham

On Wednesday morning, estranged husband of actress Toyin Abraham, Adeniyi Johnson, accused her of refusing to sign their divorce papers. In the posts shared on his Instastories, Adeniyi alleged that Toyin has been employing delay tactics in their divorce proceedings. He said she refused to turn up in court the last time they were to sign the divorce papers and as a result, the case was adjourned.

He added that she then went on to discontinue the case from Shagamu and transferred it to a court in Ibadan where they will have to restart the case. All these, he said, is her way to delay the divorce.
Adeniyi accused her of sending her publicist, Samuel Olatunji, to inform him that she wants the case moved from Shagamu to Ibadan.  Read here.
Toyin's publicist, Samuel Olatunji, has now responded to Adeniyi's allegation. In an open letter posted on his Instagram page, Olatunji wrote;

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
