    Nollywood actress,  Funke Akindele has revealed that her mother’s death and the defeat of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 governorship election in Lagos state afffected he so badly to the point that she almost died.

    Popularly called Jenifa by her fans, Funke also revealed that she broke down recently while dealing with personal issues, including the passing of her mother and having to take care of her children alone.

    In a recent interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, the box office star talked about being accused of underpaying someone who featured in her movie, her marriage falling apart, and raising her kids.

    Akindele shared the challenges of having to cope with the above, adding that it led to a breakdown.

    “I do not like to mourn. I remember when my mom passed on, I just wanted to get out of it quickly. I like to get out of the situation quickly. I do not allow myself to break down, and it affected me after my mom’s death. And I almost died.

    “My heart was aching, and something happened online. For the first time, I took my phone, I went live on social media, and I’m like, you all should leave me alone.

    “Do I know this person? No, this person came to act in my movie, got paid, and left. Why are you accusing me of something I didn’t do wrong?

    “Do you know what I’m going through? I lost my mum, my marriage fell apart, I lost in politics, I have to get back to work, I have to earn a living.

    “ I have children I’m raising alone, and you are stressing me. So, for the first time, I cried. I broke down for weeks,” she said.
