The popular Funke Akindele is a talented Yoruba movie actress who rose
to fame in I Need To Know, a TV series that enlightened youths about
HIV/AIDS. However, the Nollywood star cemented her stardom in the
Nigerian film industry with her amazing performance in her rib cracking
movie ‘Jenifa’.
This movie cuts across all social groups with the street parlance in it
becoming the mode of communication at social gatherings. Many folks now
says ‘Yelz’ instead of Yes, ‘Big Gehs’ instead of Big Girls, ‘Parry’
instead of Party, etc.
Her movie ‘The Return of Jenifa’ brought 35 Million Naira to her
coffers. ‘Maami’ (Starring Funke Akindele, Ayomide Abatti and Wole Ojo.
Produced by Tunde Kelani ) made 11 Million naira. Funke was also the
lead for the flick ‘Married But Living Single’ which grossed 9.9 Million
Naira.
Another movie which she's part of is the upcoming ‘A Wish’ and industry
buffs are already hoping it will become a box office success. With all
these facts and numbers, the question about Funke Akindele being the
richest Yoruba actress can be said to have been addressed.
Funke is undeniably very rich and to cap her success, the highly creative actress got married in 2012!
