Taking to Instagram, Queen posted stunning photos of herself with Funke and revealed that she refused to let the actress leave until she had finished pitching her cinema brand, @BanexCinema.
According to Queen, meeting Funke felt like a divine opportunity — comparing it to the biblical story of “I will not let you go unless you bless me.” She expressed deep admiration for Funke, calling her a rare gem, a true legend, and an inspiration to many in the entertainment industry.
“This little girl in the cinema business had the honour of meeting an incredibly talented, rare gem today — a true legend, @funkejenifaakindele. Trust me, I didn’t let her go until I was done pitching my brand. It was truly a case of ‘I will not let you go unless you bless me.’ Thank you so much, ma. I’m deeply honoured,” Queen wrote.
Queen’s heartfelt post comes amid several other Nollywood stars — including Debbie Shokoya, Kudirat Ogunro, Nkechi Blessing, Monsuru Ayanfe, and veteran actress Tola Oladokun — who have recently praised Funke Akindele for her humility, support, and positive influence in their careers.
Funke continues to be celebrated as a pillar in Nollywood, known for her generosity, mentorship, and unwavering dedication to lifting others in the film industry.
