'A Queen Was Born' Is Giving Stingy – Wumi Toriola Expreses Disdain Over Popular Birthday Greeting

Nollywood actress Wumi Toriola has playfully called out the popular birthday greeting "A queen was born," describing it as a trigger for stingy gift-givers.

In a recent Instagram post, she advised fans not to feel pressured to give her gifts on her birthday, stating that love is enough.

The actress, however, took a swipe at those who start their birthday wishes with the phrase "A queen was born," joking that it is often a sign of stinginess. She suggested that a simple "Happy Birthday" is far better than that overused phrase.

She wrote: "No be by force to give me gifts on my birthday. Your love is enough. Please don't just start with, 'A queen was born'.
