Acclaimed Nollywood actress and producer Funke Akindele has addressed speculations about a supposed rift with her colleague Eniola Badmus and other industry stars.

Previously, Akindele and Badmus shared a close friendship, often posting about their vacations and fun moments online. However, their public interactions have significantly decreased since the 2023 election.

In a recent interview with Arise TV, Akindele clarified her relationship with Badmus, stating, “Eniola Badmus cracks me up so much. I love to chill with her. But we have been so busy with life. Everybody is doing their thing.”

Akindele also shed light on her general approach to friendships in the entertainment industry, noting that she doesn’t maintain many close friendships outside of her family. “I think my siblings are my friends. I have people that I’m cordial with, but not serious friendships like that. Because I am always busy with work. And when I am not working, I will be sleeping, watching a movie, chilling with the kids and family.”

Preferring her own space, Akindele explained, “I don’t like going to parties. I run a studio, we film every year, and we have movies at cinemas and on streaming platforms, including content on YouTube. I’m very busy. So I just get busy with work and my children.”

Despite her busy schedule, Akindele maintains professional relationships with her colleagues. “I have cordial relationships with all my colleagues in the industry. But I love working with some particular people,” she added.
