Actress Funke Akindele has shared a message of gratitude as her latest film, Everybody Loves Jenifa, crossed the N500 million mark in just 12 days making it the highest grossing Nollywood film in 2024.

Taking to Instagram on Monday, Funke celebrated the achievement with a post thanking both God and her fans for their unwavering support.

She expressed her deep appreciation, writing: “Thank you, Lord!! Thank you, everyone!! I couldn’t have done this without your love and support!! God bless you all!!!”

The excitement surrounding the movie continues to build, as just a week ago, Funke celebrated the swift sell-out of UK premiere tickets at Odeon Cinemas.

The actress, clearly thrilled by the support from her UK fans, added more screenings to meet the high demand.

Released on December 13, Everybody Loves Jenifa features a star-studded cast, including Falz, Nancy Isime, Stan Nze, Omowunmi Dada, Layi Wasabi, Patience Ozokwor, Jide Kosoko, Tobi Makinde and Funke herself.
