Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham has distanced herself from the Lagos State All Progressives Congress campaign council, saying she is staying out of politics.
Abraham was listed as a member of the Entertainment and Creative Economy Directorate of the Lagos APC campaign council unveiled on Thursday ahead of the 2027 elections.
Reacting to the development on her Instagram Story, the actress said she had not joined any campaign council and urged the public to disregard her reported inclusion.
“I’m not a member of any campaign council. I have said it recently. I am staying out of politics. Please disregard the supposed inclusion of my name in any campaign committee,” she said.
Her name, however, remains on the published 33-member directorate document despite her public rejection of the reported appointment.
Abraham had publicly supported President Bola Tinubu during the 2023 presidential election, a position that attracted criticism and controversy on social media.
The actress later took legal steps over some online comments she described as cyberbullying and defamatory.
The Lagos APC campaign council lists Toke Benson-Awoyinka as Director of the Entertainment and Creative Economy Directorate, with actor Jide Kosoko as Co-Director and Eniola Badmus as Deputy Director.
