Ms Akindele (popularly known as Jenifa) on Monday pleaded guilty to breaching Lagos State’s social distancing law after a viral video showed the actress hosting a birthday party for her husband. She was sentenced to 14 days of community service.
AY had expressed displeasure at the calls for the actress’s prosecution and added that she “will rise again.”
YES! NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW. BUT I WISH THOSE OF YOU WHO CALLED OUT @funkeakindele CAN DO SAME WITH YOUR COUNTLESS OPPRESSORS IN GOVERNMENT… EVEN WHEN THE SKY IS FILLED WITH CLOUDS THE SUN STILL SHINES ABOVE. FUNKE WILL RISE AGAIN.#LESSONSLEARNT
