Controversial Nollywood
actor Uche Maduagwu has slammed his colleague, Funke Akindele over
her new political appointment.
In a post shared on Instagram,
Uche affirmed that Funke is a fantastic actress but her selection as Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) deputy governorship candidate for Lagos State is
ridiculously insensitive.
Uche recalled how Funke threw
a birthday party for her estranged husband, JJC Skillz during the COVID-19
lockdown.
According to Uche, Funke’s
negligence on COVID rules and regulations shows she has a long way to go in
leadership.
He wrote: “Aunty Funke Is a
fantastic actress but selecting her as the deputy governorship candidate for Lagos
2023 is preposterously insensitive. A celeb why no fit respect social
distancing by throwing a house party during lockdown is ignorant of leadership.
“Dear Aunty Funke, you are a
senior colleague and I have tremendous respect for your superb prowess in #acting but
if this Na another Jenifa series, Abeg tell us.
“They say the true test
of #LEADERSHIP is known during difficult times or adversity, and if
at unpleasant time of never before seen #global pandemic when #Nigerians Dey
observe social distancing to SAVE lives, you boastfully threw a flamboyant
house #PARTY without cognitive RESPECT for safety and the effect of
such absurd act on the millions of innocent fans who look up to you, it shows
you have a long way to go on leadership spiritual journey in the prolific #school of
OBIdient Ma.”
