Funke Akindele’s absence from Kamo State’s Star Lomo premiere has stirred conversations online, with fans questioning why the actress was missing from a milestone event for her former protégé.
Kamo held the Lagos premiere of his first cinema movie on Sunday, September 20, marking another milestone in his transition from skit making to the big screen.
However, Akindele’s absence quickly became a talking point on social media, with some users wondering whether it was linked to a possible change in their relationship.
The speculation comes against the backdrop of Akindele’s prominent role in Kamo’s career.
Beyond working with him on major projects, she has publicly supported his growth in the Nigerian entertainment industry.
Kamo has now addressed the speculation, insisting that there is no bad blood between them.
According to him, Akindele was outside Nigeria and had already spoken with him about the premiere.
He added that she remains supportive of Star Lomo and urged people to stop speculating about their personal relationship.
Akindele was reportedly in Ghana around the same period with singer Waje, who is involved in her upcoming movie, The Four.
While her absence may have left fans curious, there is currently no confirmation from either entertainer that a disagreement exists between them.
For now, Kamo appears keen to shift attention back to his big-screen debut, Star Lomo, which is scheduled to hit Nigerian cinemas on September 25.
