Nollywood actress Funke Akindele has publicly reprimanded her godson and skit maker, Kamo, for overstepping his boundaries. Akindele, who is known to be Kamo’s mentor, expressed her disappointment in a video that has been circulating on social media.
In the video, Akindele is seen scolding Kamo for making a joke that she deemed to be in poor taste. She instructed him to leave her presence, stating that she was not joking and would not tolerate his behavior. Akindele also hinted that Kamo may no longer feature in her future video projects, citing his rudeness as the reason.
Kamo attempted to apologize, addressing Akindele as “ma” and “mummy,” but she was unreceptive to his pleas. Instead, she rebuked him, saying “Who’s your mummy? We are not from the same state. Stupid boy.” The exchange highlights a clear breakdown in their relationship, with Akindele asserting her authority and boundaries.
As a prominent figure in the Nigerian entertainment industry, Akindele’s actions and relationships are closely watched by her fans and the media. Her decision to publicly address Kamo’s behavior may be seen as a way of maintaining her professional image and standards. The incident also raises questions about the dynamics between mentors and mentees in the entertainment industry, particularly when it comes to setting boundaries and maintaining respect.
The video of the incident has sparked a lot of interest and discussion on social media, with many users weighing in on Akindele’s response to Kamo’s joke. While some have expressed support for Akindele’s actions, others have criticized her for being too harsh. The incident is a reminder that even in the public eye, relationships and interactions can be complex and multifaceted.
For now, it remains to be seen how this incident will affect Akindele’s future collaborations with Kamo, or whether the two will be able to resolve their differences and continue working together. One thing is certain, however: Akindele’s reputation as a straight-shooting and uncompromising figure in the entertainment industry has been reinforced.
