Meanwhile, Funke Akindele, earlier this year, revealed why she does not practise law despite studying it
In a recent interview with BBC Yorùbá, the filmmaker said studied law at the University of Lagos (UNILAG) to please her late father.
Akindele said despite her interest in acting, singing, and dancing, her late dad always wanted her to be a lawyer.
She said she eventually studied law to fulfil her dad’s wish and thereafter went back to acting.
The actress said she “never regretted studying law because it reflected in my works”.
“Truly I studied law at the University of Lagos. My father wanted me to be a lawyer. When he was alive he was always saying ‘you will become a lawyer’. I just wanted to act on stage. I wanted to sing and dance,” she said.
‘A Tribe Called Judah‘, a family comedy-drama produced by Akindele, became the first Nollywood movie to hit N1 billion at the Nigerian box office.
