My Latest Movie A Farewell, I’m Next Lagos Deputy Governor – Funke Akindele

Actress cum politician Funke Akindele speaks on her latest movie, ‘Battle on Buka Street’, describing the movie as a farewell project as she joins politics during interview with Deji Lambo.

Excerpt….

How did you come about your new movie?

I am excited about my new movie titled ‘Battle on Buka Street.’ A young guy called Jack owns the original story. The guy is a newbie in the entertainment industry and the talents we showcased on ‘Battle on Buka Street’ are young and fresh.

How involved are you in this project?

A great change has happened positively if you noticed. From being an actor, I also write, produce, direct and discover new faces.

So, I have passed the baton of production to the young people because I have moved into politics now. So, ‘Battle on Buka Street’ is like a farewell because I am going to be the next deputy governor of Lagos State.

Yes, I will be in the background to advise and supervise them, but let them be the face, let us celebrate them, are you not tired of seeing old faces?
