Nollywood actor Afeez Oyetoro, popularly known as Saka, has explained why actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele is regarded as a strict person on set.
Oyetoro, who said he had worked with Akindele on several projects, described her as caring, humble and highly committed to her work.
Speaking during a recent interview, the actor said Akindele’s strictness was mainly driven by her desire to ensure that everyone involved in a production performed their responsibilities properly.
“I have worked with Funke a lot, and she treated me really well. Funke Akindele treated me very well,” he said.
According to him, Akindele has every reason to demand professionalism from crew members because she handles multi-million-naira projects.
“For someone who is handling a multi-million project, someone can’t just be slacking off. Yet, she is caring. Funke is caring, and she is humble. She doesn’t tolerate nonsense at all.
“That’s why people say she’s strict, but she’s only strict when necessary. If you do what you are supposed to do, she won’t be strict with you,” Oyetoro said.
He stressed that filmmaking is a collaborative effort, noting that the failure of one person to perform their duty could affect the entire production.
“If you are working on a project, everybody is supposed to play their part and play it well. Not that someone will be slacking off, because this work is a collaborative effort.
“If someone is supposed to pick up a pin over there and fails to do so, it will affect another person,” he added.
Oyetoro also praised Akindele for showing concern when issues arise on set, saying her approach reflects her personality.
“When you look at it, it’s big money. Millions! So, when it comes to the work to be done, she does it for entertainment.
“If you are working and something happens, she’ll say, ‘Ah! Hold on, hold on. What happened? Bring that.’ She shows care.
“A person’s character seeps out. That is what I observed about her. I don’t know about others, but what I observed about her, that’s what I’m talking about.”
The actor further maintained that Akindele’s intolerance for laziness should not be mistaken for a lack of care.
“I have nothing against Funke Akindele. The way she is, she is okay. Anyone who is sluggish, who is lazy, who doesn’t do their job, who doesn’t take their work seriously, Funke doesn’t like that at all.
“Funke doesn’t like laziness, any form of laziness,” he said.

Popular content creator Peller calls out Father for the leaked video showing him in bed with another man, showing they were either having fun or simply just friends, but people on social media would not let the video slide.
In a video made by Peller, he said, “I’m tired of all my family members suddenly wanting to join social media. I can’t believe people are now calling my father gay just because he was lying on a bed with another man doesn’t automatically mean he’s gay.
People are too quick to jump to conclusions and at this point, I’m tired.
“Dad, how many times did i call you to stop sleeping with your fellow man? This is what my mom has been complaining about for years, and you haven’t changed.
Don’t you know this is affecting me as your son? Most of my fans have been criticizing me on TikTok that my father is gày. I’m not happy about this at all”

Popular content creator, Jarvis gives reasons why she shaved ‘gorimapa’ during wedding rites
Content creator, Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, popularly known as Jarvis, has dismissed reports suggesting that she shaved her hair ‘gorimapa’ as part of the traditional rites for her wedding.
In a video shared online, Jarvis explained that she opted for the hairstyle simply because her stylist asked her to cut her hair, stressing that it had nothing to do with any marriage ritual.
She said, “The wedding is finally over and I’m super happy. I’m proud of myself and my husband.
“For those of you speculating that I barbed my hair for my wedding as part of some tribal marriage rites, shut up.
“I barbed my hair because I wanted my hair installation to be perfect. That is what my hair stylist recommended because I have a very stubborn hair. Most of my hair like my frontal has not been sitting pretty because of my front hair.”
Jarvis and fellow TikTok star, Peller tied the knot traditionally on August 1, 2026.
The couple held their white wedding on Saturday, August 8, 2026.
