I don’t have any issues with Funke Akindele — Tobi Makinde

Actor Tobi Makinde has finally responded to the swirling rumors about a supposed fallout between him and filmmaker Funke Akindele.

According to him, there’s no drama behind the scenes.

During a recent BBC interview, the actor dismissed the speculation, attributing it to social media for creating false narratives.

“Nothing really happened between Madam Funke and me, and I’m not aware of any fallout,” he said. “Social media likes to construct stories. They write their own script and then start looking for people to fit into the roles.”

Makinde emphasized that his relationship with Akindele goes beyond what people see online, noting that it didn’t start on social media and won’t end there either.

He also reflected on how growth and life changes can sometimes make it seem like relationships have faded, even when they haven’t.

“Our relationship no start from social media and no be for social media e go end,” he added. “Sometimes, as you grow and move from one level to another, some relationships may look like they’re lost in transit, but that’s not really the case.”
