The recent generosity of Nigerian actress Toyin Abraham to a widow of four children stunned her admirers and followers. In a widely shared video, the filmmaker was shown on an Instagram Live video call with a weeping woman who described her tragedy.

Toyin Abraham, a gifted actress from Nigeria, touched many people with her thoughtful actions toward a widow. In a widely shared video, the distraught woman talked about how life has been hard for her after losing her spouse last year as the filmmaker and her were live on Instagram.
After transferring the young lady N200k, she pinned her account details on her live call, which Toyin requested she give up while they were on the phone.
The actress continued by pleading with her admirers and followers to contribute money to the account information that is shown on her page.
The money that people were sending kept going up—from N700k, N1m, and N1.5m to N2.15m—and the actress would periodically urge the mourning woman to check her balance. The widow was sobbing during the phone because she was receiving so many alerts.
Reactions on the internet to Toyin Abraham’s live call

“Mom, may God bless you and grant you a long life for your deeds. Ire temi kan bayi. Very pleased with you.” officially:
“This woman is a blessing to us… if you don’t believe go and hug transformer.”
able_abby: “Call me callous, but whatever, so this man passes away and his family disintegrates. Simply put, women are giving birth to more children than they are able to nurture on their own in the absence of a partner. Why doesn’t anything like this ever change? Unaware that life happens, males continue to insist on keeping their spouses impoverished or with low incomes.
Why, in the majority of African families, should a family resort to suffering and beg following the death of a husband? Are you not sick of suffering?”

“May @toyin_abraham be blessed. Yesterday, while I was live, I was yelling and pleading with her to choose me so I could tell my own story. However, this woman’s tale touched me so much that I didn’t know when I opened my bank account to make the transfer—it was only a small amount, but I was so glad I did it. Godspeed to each and every one of you.”
