Nollywood actress turned filmmaker Wunmi Toriola has called out renowned YouTuber and food blogger Tolani Tayo-Osikoya known as Chef T (for short) or Diary of a Kitchen Lover.
Wumi Toriola accused Chef T of ignoring her DM, in a post made on her Instagram stories.
Backing her claims, the actress shared a screenshot of the message she sent to the Chef, in which she proposed a collaboration for her upcoming cinema debut in 2024.
The actress expressed her admiration for Chef T’s work and suggested featuring on one of her cooking episodes. She wrote:
“Good morning sis. I have been a lover of your page for a while. I don’t know if any of your cooking episodes is coming soon. Would love to feature as my cinema debut is coming in September—me wearing a t-shirt of it while cooking on one of your episodes. I don’t know if and how it works with you.”
Chef T reportedly didn’t respond to the request, moving Wumi Toriola to accuse her of feeling too big to collaborate, implying that the food blogger now distances herself from others after achieving success. She wrote:
“Chef T @diaryofakitchenlover feels she doesn’t need anyone again. Na only she grow her grow. Shey na December me sef come out????”
“They all like the message but hates the messenger”
When Chef T’s fan page reshared an old motivation post from the former, Wumi Toriola hit back;
“Fake page mama don drop motivation
E ku ataro aunty.
E jere ise owo yin.”
Chef T is yet to respond to the accusations as of the time of this report.
