Actress and filmmaker, Toyin Abraham of Nollywood, has offered her colleague Funke Akindele a helping hand.
In Nigeria, the two have the most fantastic competition at the box office.
In a lengthy Instagram post, Abraham said that rumours caused them to become “competitors and persona non grata.”
She recalled how their competition started in the Yoruba film industry and transferred to Nollywood, the Nigerian-English film industry.
But Abraham claimed that wisdom and age have shown her that they can compete without becoming negatively competitive.
She wrote, “In the English industry, Aunty Funke and I continued the rivalry sort of. It pitted our fans against each other. We are two competitive Virgo women, we love to win and sometimes in that process, we splash dirt and mud. But with time, age, and more wisdom, I have realized we can compete without being negatively competitive.
“Aunty Funke, I celebrate you for showing us what is possible. You are a winner. You sold over 1B, you made it possible for other women to dream. You ran us street with that 1B o, this year, many of us will move to 1B and we pray God makes you bigger. Thank you for making great movies and selling them like your life depends on it. You taught other women to hustle harder.
“I had set records in box office records, Aunty came and beat them, today I am happy because she has challenged me to set higher goals. Sis, let’s compliment each other even in competition at the box office, I owe you one post in December (only 1 o, I need to sell market…Lol). I pray that God will make all your dreams come true. I admire you and wish you all the best.”
