Nollywood actor Yomi Fabiyi has stirred reactions after making a surprising claim about his relationship with fellow actress Funke Akindele.
In a video circulating online, the actor stated that his friendship with Funke Akindele ended shortly after he informed her that he had completed his house.
Fabiyi said he was taken aback by the sudden change, noting that he had not offended her in any way before communication between them stopped.
He also used the moment to reflect on his experience in the film industry, describing it as challenging and stating that public perception of individuals may not always reflect reality.
The actor’s comments have generated mixed reactions on social media, with some users expressing surprise while others called for caution in drawing conclusions without hearing from all parties involved.
Fabiyi has previously made headlines over comments involving colleagues, including remarks about industry success and personal achievements.
In 2024, he completed a house which he dedicated to his mother and later hosted a housewarming event in Abeokuta, Ogun State. The event was attended by several Nollywood figures and featured presentations and support from associates.
The actor has also spoken in the past about personal challenges and controversies, stating that he has faced criticism and opposition despite his efforts to support others in the industry.
As of the time of this report, Funke Akindele has not publicly responded to Fabiyi’s recent claims.
