Funke Akindele Dances with Waje Amid Premiere Backlash
Funke Akindele, a prominent actress in the Nigerian film industry, faced criticism from netizens for her absence at the Kamo State movie premiere. Accusations arose that she was disregarding important moments for those close to her.
Instead of addressing the backlash directly, Akindele opted for a lighthearted approach by posting a video on her Instagram page on September 21, 2026, where she was seen dancing with Nigerian singer Waje. The video served as a promotional effort for her upcoming cinema project, The Four.
In her caption, she drew a playful comparison between the confidence displayed in the video and her anticipated entrance into cinemas when the film is released. The comment section of her post saw a mix of support and criticism, with fans expressing their opinions on the situation.
Additionally, Nollywood actor Tobi Makinde commented on the alleged rift between him and Akindele regarding her absence, which sparked further reactions on social media.
