Nollywood actor, Tobi Makinde, has finally addressed the swirling rumours about a supposed fallout between him and prolific Nigerian filmmaker Funke Akindele.

Speaking during a recent BBC interview, the actor dismissed the speculation, pointing fingers at social media for creating narratives that don’t exist.

Makinde stressed that his relationship with Akindele goes beyond what people see online, noting that it didn’t start on social media and won’t end there either.
