In a video making rounds online, Lande recalled how Funke called him for a movie production at Amen Estate, where he spent one month and was only paid N90,000.
Advising upcoming actors, he told them not to see any top actor as god as he revealed that he has learnt his lessons and will now give charges to anyone who calls him for a job.
“There was a time Funke Akindele called me for a movie production at Amen Estate, and we spent one month there. I was shocked when she gave me N90,000 after spending one month. I will advise the upcoming actors never to see any top actor as god. I have learnt my lessons. I will give my charges to anyone who wants to call me for any job now before going to the location. When she called me, I was too excited to tell her how much I would charge only to be paid N90k after one month”.
In 2023, an alleged report made rounds of how Funke pressured media mogul, Mo Abudu to decast Toyin from Chief Daddy’s movie and replace her with Kate Henshaw, which Mo succumbed to. The blogger further claimed that Funke did the same with Beverly Osu as she tried pressuring Mo Abudu to decast her in a movie but for the intervention of Joke Silva, Beverly Osu was saved. Cutie Julls claimed that the issue almost led to a confrontation between Beverly and Funke after she got wind of it.
Last year, Faithia Williams called out Funke Akindele for allegedly blocking her on Instagram over her support for Mercy Aigbe and her new movie. The Yoruba actress made Funke know that she isn’t her God, and she wasn’t bothered by her petty act.
Iyabo Ojo and Funke fell out and were at loggerheads after Iyabo dragged Funke when a blogger criticised Toyin Abraham’s movie, The Ghost and The Tout. However, Iyabo Ojo and Funke Akindele put their beef aside by embracing and exchanging pecks at the Africa Magic Viewers Choice Award season 8 in 2022.
