The famous Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele, sparked a buzz on social media when she was presented with a surprise gift of a new car at her event.
On Wednesday night, a special event called “A Toast To Funke Akindele” was organized to celebrate the actress’s impressive achievement of grossing over a billion in cinemas. The celebration, in partnership with GAC Motor Nigeria and FilmOne Entertainment, brought together a star-studded guest list including Iyabo Ojo, Eniola Ajao, Sola Sobowale, Taaooma, Bisola Aiyeola, Groovy, Timini, Diadem, Adunni Ade, Yvonne Jegede, Simi Drey, Kehinde Bankole, Omowunmi Dada, the cast of “A Tribe Called Judah,” and many others.
The highlight of the event occurred when Funke Akindele was pleasantly surprised with a brand-new car from GAC Motor, adding to the excitement of the evening.
However, the gift of the car sparked criticism from some social media users who argued that someone who is already wealthy and can afford a car does not deserve such extravagance.
