Drama as Eniola Badmus and other movie stars shun Funke Akindele

 


Since Funke Akindele emerged as the running mate to Jandor, the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, many of her colleagues in the movie industry have distanced themselves from her political ambition.


A check by Kemi Filani found that none of her colleagues, not even her off-and-on bosom friend, Eniola Badmus has posted Funke Akindele’s political ambition on their Instagram pages, nor campaigned for her.

Leaving Funke Akindele to stand alone in her campaigns without any help from the entertainment industry, the majority of them chose to pitch their tents with the ruling party in Lagos State All Progressives Congress (APC).



Some of the reasons why Funke Akindele has been left alone have now been unveiled by City People.


Reasons why Funke Akindele’s colleagues abandoned her

One, she is from the Yoruba genre of the industry but she rarely features in Yoruba movies. She concentrates only on her personal projects and English genre movies.

Also, the competition among the movie stars would not allow them to support one another’s political ambitions.


“Everybody wants to be on top, so supporting just one person to get to the top is too much of a risk for them. Besides, most of them depend on politicians for survival. To now go against politicians is too much a risk for the stars.” a source told City People.


Observers noted that Funke Akindele has always been a lone minder, who doesn’t keep friends in the industry. Whatever relationship she has with anyone in the industry is purely professional.
