Juliana Olayode tenders deep apology to Funke Akindele, 6 years after fallout
Kemi Filani reported in May that Juliana Olayode had tendered a deep apology to her senior colleague, Funke Akindele.
Recall that the two fell apart for undisclosed reasons in 2017, after Juliana starred in Funke Akindele’s hit series, ‘Jenifa’s Diary’.
In a lengthy post on her Instagram page, Juliana Olayode reflected on how she rose to fame overnight by playing the lead role in Funke Akindele’s movie.
She noted how God used Funke Akindele to put her into the limelight and how she became overwhelmed with the fame she received.
However, the lack of industry nitty gritty started manifesting in her, coupled with the fact that she had a manager who didn’t understand how the entertainment industry worked and she believed anything he said.
Her manager had gone behind her back to send an email to Funke Akindele’s production company which led to their fallout.
Tendering an apology to her, Juliana revealed that she had privately reached out to Funke Akindele to apologize and they had reconciled, but she wanted to make the apology public.
