Adeola Aderounmu, the brother of the late actress Jumoke Aderounmu, shared more insight into his issues with actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele.
In an interview with Punch Newspaper, he explained that he never reached out to Funke Akindele because he did not have her contact information and was not close to her.
His sister had tried to contact her and even sent Paschaline Alex to her, but all attempts were unsuccessful.
He mentioned that Funke had stopped offering his sister jobs, and she wanted to know why in case she had done something wrong.
Only Rita Dominic and Sotayo Gaga were there for her when she needed help.
Describing his sister as an introvert who kept to herself, he clarified that she was not ill before passing away in her sleep. She had plans to relocate before her untimely death.
Adeola added that she has since been buried but the family is planning to organize a tribute event in church on the 40th day after her death.
“I did not reach out to Funke Akindele because I didn’t have her phone number and I am not close to her but my sister had her number and even sent another actress, Paschaline Alex to her, all to no avail. Funke stopped calling her for jobs and Jumoke tried to know why because she wanted to retrace her steps if she had committed any offense. Only two of her colleagues, Rita Dominic and Tayo Sobola came through for her in her time of need. She was an introvert and usually kept to herself. She was not sick. She just passed away in her sleep. She was planning on relocating to the United Kingdom before her demise. We have buried her but the family will organize a tribute event in church on the 40th day after her de*th”.
Recall that Adeola had dragged Funke Akindele for abandoning his late sister. Adeola had tackled Funke for publicly mourning her when she had abandoned his sister during her dying moments.
Calling her out over her fake love and hypocrisy, he revealed that his sister had put a call through to Funke several times and had reached out to her through her friends but she didn’t turn up for her.
Questioning why the eye service, he added that it is now she is dead, she was showing fake love.
