It’s about time we recognise Funke Akindele as a frontrunner in Nollywood cinema. N1bn is a lot of money, especially in a time like this where Nigerians are experiencing economic downturns. Credit where it’s due, she has paved the way. pic.twitter.com/QEYtEsSwgz

The way Funke Akindele has done this thing, 1-2-3 of the top grossing list, so there’s no wonder if she’s the one. SHE IS THE ONE.

Funke Akindele doing 1billion in 3weeks in only local cinemas with less than 300 screens, Imagine we had up to 200k screens in the country?
