Actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele has ignited speculation about a possible collaboration with Grammy-winning artist Wizkid after the two shared pictures of each other on social media.

In the early hours of Tuesday, Wizkid posted a picture of Funke on his Instagram Story, which she reciprocated by sharing a picture of him on her own Story.

This exchange has left fans, especially on X (formerly Twitter), buzzing with excitement and curiosity, wondering if the duo is working on a new project.

Funke and Wizkid have a history of working together.

In 2018, the actress appeared in Wizkid’s ‘Fever’ music video, and two years later, Wizkid made a cameo appearance in Akindele’s hit movie Omo Ghetto: The Saga.

Given their collaborative past, many believe the two might be teaming up for a new movie project.

Also Wizkid has previously expressed his interest in acting, and fans are hopeful that this could be the moment he finally makes his on-screen debut.

Social media is abuzz with excitement, as fans speculate about the potential project.

Many have taken to X to share their anticipation.

One user, Xandy Jay wrote, “You’re the greatest of all time. The Wizkid of Nollywood. All the rest are like Davido, Burna, Olamide, Rema, etc. Toyin Abraham is Odumodu.”

Another fan, Martins Temilola added, “Aura for Aura.”

Ogunmusi asked, “What’s going on, maami?”

Santus Hood also chimed in, saying, “This one wey popsy post Funke, she come post popsy back. Wetin dey sub?”

Tobi Jubril summed up the general feeling, saying, “Real recognize real. Aunty Funke ti foju jo Wizzy.”

While neither Akindele nor Wizkid has confirmed any details about a new collaboration, the excitement surrounding their potential partnership continues to grow.
