Actress Bimbo Akinsanya has spoken out in support of colleague Funke Akindele amid allegations of neglect about their deceased junior colleague, Jumoke Aderounmu.
Bimbo recalled in an Instagram post that ten years ago, the late Folake Oshadare, one of Nollywood’s make-up artists, told her that Funke was sending her monthly medication money since she was battling cancer.
She added that she remembers calling her sister and mother and telling them about the gesture that brought her to tears.
Making a case for her, Bimbo stated that Funke is not flawless, and that no one is, but she is certain that Funke is an Angel in her own way.
She penned:
“About 10 years ago I saw the late folake oshadare ( one of our make-up artists ) at Ikeja & we exchanged phone numbers. She called me that very day & said I should please help her with some money to buy her drugs cos she was a cancer patient. In her words, @funkejenifaakindele was the one giving her money for the drugs every month. Yes, EVERY MONTH.
” But she couldn’t get through to Funke because she was not in the country and she asked me for help. I remember calling my sister & even telling my mum about Funke’s kind gesture, in fact, I was moved to tears.
“Funke is not perfect & no one is, but I know that this lady right here is an Angel in her own way. We all have our shortcomings but with what I know & heard about Funke, please let’s give it to her. May God Almighty continue to guide & guard our steps”.
