Nigerian actress Olayode Juliana, known for her role in the popular TV series “Jenifa’s Diary,” has come forward to defend her boss, Funke Akindele, amidst allegations of neglect by the latter.
The controversy stemmed from accusations made by the brother of the late Jumoke Aderounmu, who had previously acted in the same production.
Jumoke Aderounmu’s brother had claimed that Funke Akindele failed to respond to their pleas for assistance while his sister was battling health issues.
However, Olayode Juliana’s post sheds light on a different side of the story, emphasizing Funke Akindele’s remarkable acts of kindness.
According to Juliana’s message on Instagram, Funke Akindele played a pivotal role in saving her mother’s life when she was suffering from fibroids.
Juliana expressed profound gratitude towards Funke Akindele, recounting how the actress emptied her own account to ensure Juliana’s mother received timely treatment at a private hospital.
In her words;
“Mamaaaaaaaaaaaaa @funkejenifaakindele Olufunke Omo Akindele, the one who the Lord delights in.
The apple of God’s eyes, the one who has found favor in the sight of God, the one who God has clothed with so much grace and glory, the one who God has enthroned!!! The one whose path is like a shinning light, the one whose light can not be dimmed!
Olufunke Omo Akindele, the one who has gone through fire and came out without smelling like smoke, a strong woman, a resilient woman, an amazon, a phenomenal woman, a pace setter, a record breaker, a good woman.
My mum would have died of fibroid years ago, had you not emptied your account to make sure that she was taken to a private hospital and treated immediately.
You do a lot of good but you don’t post about it, you don’t do it for publicity, a lot of people are on your payroll, you have done so much, instagram caption would not be enough to talk about it.
You have worked so hard to be where you are and God backed you up. You will never fall and you will never fail, the mighty hand of God will continue to carry for the rest of your life.
You, your children and everything that concerns you is covered by God!!!!
I LOVE YOU MAMA ❤️❤️”
