Award-winning Nollywood actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele has heaped praises on fellow actress Dakore Egbuson-Akande, expressing deep admiration for her strength and talent.
Taking to her Instagram page, Funke humorously noted that if she were ever scammed, Dakore would be the first person she’d call—without hesitation. She explained that Dakore’s fierce loyalty and street smarts would make her the perfect ally in such a situation.
“I won’t think twice before calling @dakoreea o!!!!
Bring those your battalions.
She go run them street.”
In addition to the playful shoutout, Funke commended Dakore’s stellar performance in her latest movie, Finding Me, and thanked her for being a part of the project.
“My darling sis @dakoreea, you delivered a wonderful performance in Finding Me. Thank you for joining me on this journey.”
Dakore responded in the comment section with heartfelt words, expressing her gratitude for the opportunity to work alongside Funke:
“It was a joy to play Aunty Ibere, my dear sis.”
This exchange between the two stars comes amid a series of empowering messages Funke has been sharing lately. Just a few days ago, she dropped a motivational post aimed at young creatives, encouraging them to remain steadfast. She admitted that her own path to success was far from easy, but the journey—rooted in hustle and resilience—was worth every struggle.
In March, Funke opened up about a new chapter in her life, revealing that she is embracing growth, positivity, and transformation as she continues to evolve into the best version of herself.
Speaking at an event earlier this year, she made it clear that no one made her a star but God. Recalling the origin of her iconic Jenifa brand, Funke shared how an industry colleague once encouraged her to keep building on the brand and even offered financial support to help bring her vision to life.
Last year, she gave fans a glimpse into her past struggles, revealing how her rise to fame was filled with obstacles. Despite the setbacks, she described herself as a living testimony of perseverance and self-belief—using her experiences to inspire others.
Funke Akindele continues to be a beacon of strength and creativity in Nollywood, and her camaraderie with Dakore Akande is yet another beautiful display of mutual respect and sisterhood in the industry.
