Action Democratic Party candidate in the 2019 Lagos State governorship election, Babatunde Gbadamosi, has called out popular actress and politician, Funke Akindele.
He is tackling her over the funding of her film, ‘Omo Ghetto: The Saga’.
Babatunde recently called out Funke Akindele and accused her of being ungrateful and spreading falsehood.
Funke had mentioned at an event that Sade Balogun, previously known as Sade Gbadamosi, played a key role in her career.
She shared how Balogun helped her with her popular series Jenifa’s Diary and supported her film ‘Omo Ghetto: The Saga’.
In his reply, Gbadamosi reflected on his earlier plan to make comedian Ayo Makun, known as AY, an ambassador for Amen Estate, but he changed his mind due to his sister’s influence, as she wanted Funke for the role.
“I blame my younger sister, @iyaeto for @Funkeakindele’s nauseating ingratitude and shameless lies. I was going to give the Amen Estate ambassadorship to AY.”
He remembered a long chat his sister allegedly had with Funke when the actress and some stars came to see him.
“My sister started pressuring me to give her the ambassador role, since she was our “àbúrò” from back home. That she was married to Abdul-Rasheed Bello, aka JJC Skillz, also counted in her favour, because I had been a big fan of his since around 2003,” he said.
Contrary to what Funke said, Gbadamosi disclosed that he was the one who funded “Ọmọ Ghetto: The Saga.”
