Funke Akindele, a prolific Nigerian actress, filmmaker, and director, has been praised after her new film, ‘A tribe called Judah,’ became the first in Nollywood to gross one million Naira at the box office.
The actress is currently being recognized for her significant achievements in the Nigerian film business.
Funke Akindele is noted for her amazing performance in the movies titled, ‘Jenifa’ and ‘Return of Jenifa’, a 2008 comedy-drama which she then stretched to a series entitled, ‘Jenifa’s Diary’.
Despite losing the Lagos Gubernatorial election in 2023, the mother of two becomes the first Nigerian to ever break the record for the highest-grossing Nollywood film as Deputy Governor on the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) platform.
‘A Tribe Called Judah,’ ‘Battle on Buka Street,’ and ‘Omo Ghetto: The Saga’ were the first three highest-grossing films she produced.
