Jumoke Aderounmu: “How I was moved to tears by Funke Akindele’s good deeds to a cancer patient” Bimbo Akisanya spills as she defends actress


Nollywood actress, Bimbo Akisanya has defended her senior colleague, Funke Akindele over claims of her abandoning her deceased junior colleague, Jumoke Aderounmu.

Taking to her Instagram page, Bimbo revealed that 10 years ago, the late Folake Oshadare, one of Nollywood’s make-up artists had revealed to her how Funke was sending monthly money for her medication as she was a cancer patient.


Bimbo stated that she remembered calling her sister and mother and telling them of Funke’s sweet gesture which moved her to tears.


Making a case for her, Bimbo noted how Funke isn’t perfect and no one is, but she is sure that Funke is an Angel in her own way and she has her own shortcomings.


“About 10yrs ago I saw the late folake oshadare ( one of our make-up artists ) at Ikeja & we exchanged phone numbers. She called me that very day & said I should please help her with some money to buy her drugs cos she was a cancer patient. In her words,


 @funkejenifaakindele was the one giving her money for the drugs every month. Yes, EVERY MONTH. But she couldn’t get through to Funke cos she was not in the country reason she asked me for help. I remember calling my sister & even telling my mum about Funke’s kind gesture, in fact, I was moved to tears.


Funke is not perfect & no one is, but I know that this lady right here is an Angel in her own way. We all have our shortcomings but with what I know & heard about Funke, please let’s give it to her.


May God Almighty continue to guide & guard our steps”.



This is coming hours after Late Jumoke Aderounmu’s brother, Adeola dragged Funke for abandoning his late sister. Adeola had tackled Funke for publicly mourning her when she had abandoned his sister during her dying moments.


Calling her out over her fake love and hypocrisy, he revealed that his sister had put a call through to Funke several times and had reached out to her through her friends but she didn’t turn up for her. Questioning why the eye service, he added that it is now she is dead, she was showing fake love.


Reacting to his claims, Funke took to her Instagram Live to break down in tears as she noted how she lost her mother, marriage, and politics and is trying to get her life back together.


 She noted how someone commented on her page praying that she would bury her children as she questioned what she did wrong.


Funke claimed that when Jumoke was alive, she reached out to Jide Awobona to ask about her and he got back to her saying Jumoke wanted people to be calling her for jobs. She stated that she saw Jumoke’s brother post that she abandoned the actress, which was untrue. She disclosed that she sent him a message but he didn’t respond and nobody told her Jumoke was sick.


Replying to her, Adeola told her to stop acting on Live video as he claimed that the actress only reached out to him when she died. He questioned how Funke expected him to reply to her when she only remembered his sister after her death.


Recall that Funke had earlier indirectly responded to Jumoke’s brother’s allegations, as she shared a post about respecting her energy. From the post, Funke indirectly stated that she would start respecting her energy and stop chasing people who don’t resonate with her.
