Nollywood history has once again been rewritten as OverSabi Aunty, the latest cinematic triumph from Toyin Abraham, officially crosses the ₦1.017 billion mark at the Nigerian box office. With this feat, the film becomes the fourth-highest-grossing Nigerian movie of all time, securing its place among the industry’s most remarkable commercial successes.
This extraordinary achievement stands as a testament to vision, resilience, and unwavering belief. Toyin Abraham’s journey remains one of the most inspiring stories in African cinema. Rising from her roots in the Yoruba film industry, she made a bold transition into mainstream Nollywood. She announced her arrival as a formidable producer with Alakada Reloaded, which earned ₦75 million in her debut cinema outing. She went on to shatter expectations with Alakada Bad and Boujee, which closed at over ₦500 million last year. Today, with OverSabi Aunty surpassing the ₦1 billion benchmark, Toyin Abraham has firmly cemented her status as a box-office powerhouse and one of Nollywood’s defining creative forces.
This landmark success was made possible by the passion and professionalism of an outstanding cast and crew who worked tirelessly to bring OverSabi Aunty to life. We extend heartfelt appreciation to every actor, filmmaker, creative, and technical professional whose dedication delivered a cinematic experience embraced by audiences nationwide.
A special tribute is reserved for Toyin Abraham’s fiercely loyal fan base, popularly known as the Toyin Titans. Widely recognised as one of the most influential fan communities in Nigeria and across Africa, the Toyin Titans have remained steadfast through every high and low. Your unity, consistency, and unmatched energy transformed support into impact — and impact into history. This achievement is not Toyin Abraham’s victory alone; it is yours as well.
We also sincerely appreciate Toyin Abraham’s wider fan base and cinema lovers across the country for continually supporting the brand and championing Nigerian storytelling.
OverSabi Aunty is still showing in cinemas nationwide, and audiences are encouraged to continue experiencing this historic film on the big screen.
As we celebrate this defining ₦1 billion milestone, one thing is clear: the journey has only just begun. Bigger visions, bolder stories, and greater milestones are already in motion for 2026 and beyond.
