By Patricia Uyeh

Nollywood actress, Toyin Aimakhu now Toyin Abraham has revealed the reason for her name change on her new YouTube Channel.

According to her, it is a family decision.

She was quoted saying:  ‘It’s a family decision, my dad’s name is Abraham and my forefather’s name is Aimakhu. It’s a family issue, it’s a family thing, it’s a family decision which I don’t wanna to discuss”

She also added: ”They’ve actually asked me to change it like two-three years ago, I told them my brand, but now they insisted.”

Toyin dropped ”Johnson” after splitting from her ex-husband, Adeniyi Johnson, in August 2015.

This is the second time Toyin Aimakhu would be adopting a new name in less than five years.
