A long time ‘beef’ between ace actresses, Toyin Abraham and Funke Akindele has finally been settled as both of them exchanged jokes in celebration of the latter’s birthday celebration.
It was Toyin Abraham, who posted Funke Akindel’s picture on Instagram in celebration of her birthday, and this indicated that the long time rift between them is over.
Both of them have now reconciled and exchanged pleasantries “Happy birthday aunty Funke, send cake o”.
To show she acknowledged her message, Funke Akindele reposted it on her Instagram page and responded with “Thanks darling, you too send cake”
It will be recalled that there have been different reports on an alleged competition between the duo especially as regards hitting the box office‘s highest-grossing movie with their different productions.
Both Fun and Toyin had tongues wagging when they both chose the same date, September 10, 2021, to release their movies, ‘Ghost and the tout too’ in the cinemas and ‘Omo Ghetto the saga’ on Netflix.
At a time, Iyabo Ojo further fueled the rivalry by alleging that Funke Akindele was sponsoring an online movie platform to always tarnish Toyin Abraham’s movies with bad reviews.
It became even more apparent when the two actors in 2022 kept bragging about how well their movies did in the Nigerian cinema box office, turning their fans and even colleagues against each other.
Funke Akindele had announced on Wednesday, December 28, 2023 that her movie, Battle on Buka street grossed over N200 million at the Nigerian box office in 12 days.
Not to be intimidated by the feat, Toyin Abraham who released Ijakumo on December 23, on the same date also announced that her movie hit N31 Million in one day and N65 million in just 5 days.
