The drama started when Wumi Toriola shared a private conversation with well-known food blogger Tolani Osikoya, revealing that Chef T had ignored her request for a collaboration. Meanwhile, Toyin Abraham left a seemingly innocent comment on Chef T’s Instagram page, Diary of a Kitchen Lover, featuring lovestruck emojis and expressing her excitement for the chef’s upcoming meal.
What appeared to be a harmless comment quickly sparked backlash from social media users. Many critics accused Abraham of hypocrisy, labeling her ‘alabosi,’ a Yoruba term.
The drama continued to unfold when Wumi Toriola publicly criticized Chef T for allegedly turning down her request to collaborate on a cooking show. This ignited a heated debate over the chef’s rejection. On the other hand, Opeyemi Famakin defended Chef T, praising her as a talented food blogger who supports and collaborates with others. Famakin made it clear that he would not tolerate any slander, particularly from an actress.
In response, Nollywood actress Wumi Toriola sharply fired back at Famakin, who had defended Chef T. She accused him of being a coward for making indirect comments about her without directly naming her. The feud began when Toriola voiced her frustration over what she saw as Chef T’s refusal to collaborate, taking to social media to express her disappointment.
