lines of her past struggles.
Underdog Spirit

define me, it fuels me. Despite all the challenges I face, I keep pushing
boundaries in Nigerian cinema. My success isn’t measured by accolades but by
the stories I tell and the lives I Impact. Here’s to never give up on your
dreams, no matter the odds. #UnderdogSpirit #Persistence #keeppushing”
Meanwhile, taking to the comment section, comedian Cute
Abiola asked if the actress is yet to pay her house rent, referencing her
wealth of talent and the successful projects she has seen through. The joke
about rent often comes up when a person is working hard and taking up a lot of
new projects.

seat belts o! This was likely relating to Akindele’s last project which broke
and set a new Box office record, after crossing the one billion naira mark.
