Nollywood actor and director Tobi Makinde recently shared a thought-provoking message on his Instagram page.
The post featured photos of Makinde and a caption emphasizing the importance of growth through change. He quoted George Bernard Shaw: “Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.”
In late 2023, rumors circulated about a rift between Makinde and his former collaborator, Funke Akindele. Some reports suggested Akindele was hindering Makinde’s exploration of other opportunities.
While there has been a decrease in their public social media interactions, Makinde recently acknowledged Akindele’s achievements. He specifically praised her record-breaking success in the Nigerian film industry.
Makinde also addressed rumors about Akindele’s treatment of colleagues. He refuted these claims, expressing gratitude for Akindele’s mentorship and support throughout his career.
For context, Makinde and Akindele have a long-standing working relationship dating back to the early seasons of Jenifa’s Diary. Makinde played the role of Akindele’s character’s personal assistant in the popular series.
