Funke Akindele has no doubt set a huge milestone that it would be hard for any Nigerian filmmaker to break. The movie star and filmmaker made history in January, as the first Nigerian filmmaker to gross over a billion at cinemas, as her latest movie, A Tr!be Called Judah grossed over N1.4 billion.
It’s no surprise to many as Funke is one of the most hardworking women in Nollywood. Her movies in the past three years, A Tr!be Called Judah, Battle On Buka Street, and Omo Ghetto The Saga are respectively the highest-grossing Nollywood films of all time.
Her groundbreaking achievement made her the recipient of a brand-new car at her event.
