Kemi Filani recalls that Funke Akindele in 2021 supported Mercy Aigbe during a subtle fight with Iyabo Ojo.
Pitching her tent at Mercy Aigbe’s against Iyabo Ojo, happily married actress, Omo Ghetto movie producer and mum of twins, Funke Akindele threw the former a shout on Instagram with the caption:
“@realmercyaigbe congrats on your new whip!!! Oya buy one SUV for me too as per say You be my co -star in #omoghettothesagaabes, you go use that new SUV carry me go watch #omoghettothesagamovie today for cinema o!! God bless you more dear”
She did that after Iyabo Ojo dragged Mercy Aigbe for lying about being gifted a range rover as a show of some competition of some sort especially coming after Iyabo Ojo was given hers a few months before.
According to the mother of two, being in a competition with someone is toxic and stressful. Adding that its old fashioned lacking peace of mind because of competition.
