“Funke Akindele Your Joy Is Everybody’s Joy”, Celebrities Show Love To The Actress As She Welcomes Twins

On Saturday, award-winning Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele-Bello, famous for her comical role, Jenifa broke the Nigerian internet.

As the news of the birth of her twin sons filtered through social media and blogs, joy permeated through the air. It was as though Nigerians had won a collective jackpot or better still, the government had announced a breakthrough in power supply.

The birth of the actress’s sons is a peculiar moment for all considering that a Lagos-based prophet, Olagorioye Faleyimu, had prophecied only last year that the actress may not have children of her own, and might end up with another broken home.

This prophecy of doom came few weeks after news made rounds that the actress miscarried her pregnancy. Funke Akindele was newly married to singer, producer and actor, JJC Skillz at the time and a few people had concerns about the future of their relationship considering JJC has older children from previous marriages.

Funke Akindele has forged through regardless of the challenges and it is not a surprise that her celebrity friends have taken this miracle to heart.

From Mo Abudu to Eniola Badmus and FalztheBahdGuy, see some of their reactions:
