Shockwaves are reverberating across Yorùbáland and the global Yorùbá diaspora following the sudden death of the Baba Ọba (King’s Father) of the famed Oyotunji African Village in South Carolina, USA. The late Baba Ọba, Lukman Arohunfale, a revered socialite and traditionalist, passed away under circumstances already sparking fierce controversy. His death comes just days after he publicly accused the newly installed Alaafin of Oyo, His Imperial Majesty Oba Akeem Adéyẹmọ Owoade, of allegedly ordering his courtiers to beat him mercilessly during a recent courtesy visit to the Oyo palace in Nigeria. In a widely circulated voice recording, the deceased recounted how what was meant to be a simple homage turned violent. Although the Baba Ọba had reportedly battled ill health in the past year, growing insinuations suggest that the alleged physical assault may have aggravated his condition, ultimately leading to his untimely death. The palace in Oyo recently denied that s...
For some time now, Nollywood actress Funke Akindele and her colleague Toyin Abraham have been at war over unknown issues to their fans.
The beef between Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham became evident after fans noticed she always shuns her during birthday celebrations and does not like to associate with her or those close to her, including Iyabo Ojo.
Funke Akindele also surprised many movie lovers after she chose to premiere her movie ‘Omo Ghetto the Saga’ the same day Toyin Abraham’s movie ‘Ghost and the Tout’ started showing in cinemas across Nigeria.
This clash left many fans of both actresses the choice to either visit the cinema to watch ‘The Ghost and The Tout’ or stay glued to NETFLIX for ‘Omo Ghetto the Saga’.
However, an Instagram blogger has alleged that Funke Akindele has repeatedly been spitting Toyin Abraham in the presence of other Nollywood stars.
The blogger alleged that Funke Akindele had on one occasion threatened to stop working with a popular stylist if she dared to style Toyin Abraham.
This came to the knowledge of Toyin Abraham, and she cried, saying she has no problem with Funke Akindele or beefing her for any reason.
According to the blogger, a famous producer had wanted to cast Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham for a movie project, but Funke said she would not be on the project alongside Toyin.
The blogger wrote: To be fair, maybe some elders need to call Funke and Toyin and amend whatever is codedly brewing.
I’m a huge fan of both. I support anything Toyin or Funke especially Funke. Funke says Scene one, we are there. Funke shouts Netflix omo, I don land grab front seat. Funke says cinema, I will pay and pay for friends and close instafams. I don’t even think about contents so long as it’s Funke.
But my dear Funke needs to check some of her attitudes and especially the things she says to people about others, especially her colleagues.
There is a very 100% authentic gist of Funke telling a famous stylist that she, Funke will stop working with her if she dares style Toyin. Guess what, the Stylist spread the gist like wildfire when Funke at a point gave her one of her gbas Gbos attitudes [even though the stylist was at fault]. From our sources, Toyin heard of it and she practically wept cuz she claims she has no problems at all with Funke.
Another occasion was when there was a movie project that the “famous producer” wanted to cast both Funke and Toyin. Funke was alleged to have told the producer that if you cast Toyin, I ain’t going to be on this project.
Wow! . Guess what? From Funke’s mouth to producer’s ears and then from Producer’s mouth eventually to Toyin and everyone’s ears including bloggers.
These are few real life situations which happened and it’s not healthy. It’s really heartbreaking to see Funke always pointed in the wrong in all these. Especially for some of us who are fans of her act.
Come on na, Funke darling, please kindly stop it. Stop talking. Leave people to mingle with who they want to mingle with. Maybe you might not have said everything but you saying 1 can be switched up to you saying 100. The sky they say is big enough for all. Stay blessed and hopefully you don’t get upset but have a reflection. Don’t hold on to grudges my darling. Have a fabulous day.
