Funke Akindele reacts to Temi Abayomi’s car gift story

Nollywood actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele has congratulated content creator Temi Abayomi, popularly known as Mrs Aje, after she shared the story behind the brand-new car she received as a gift.

Temi disclosed that the car came as a surprise while she was working with Funke on a content shoot.

According to the content creator, she had attended Funke’s 21-day praise and worship programme, where she prayed for a car.

She later accompanied the filmmaker to Midedara Motors for a content shoot. Temi explained that Funke had repeatedly asked her about her payment for the job, but she insisted that she wanted to work without charging her.

After the shoot, Funke’s associate, Mama Jamola, reportedly approached her with some information. Temi said she was confused when Funke suddenly went on her knees and began crying.

She eventually discovered that Midedara Motors had gifted her a brand-new car.

Sharing the experience on social media, Temi expressed gratitude to Funke and the company for making the moment memorable.

She also asked her followers to pray for the filmmaker, describing her as a mother figure who genuinely celebrates the people around her.

Funke later reposted Temi’s account on her X page and congratulated her.

The filmmaker’s gesture has also reminded some of her followers of other occasions when she supported people close to her.

Late last year, content creator Kamo spoke about receiving an iPhone 16 Pro Max worth N2.4 million from Funke. He described the filmmaker as a mother figure and said he enjoyed publicly appreciating her kindness.

Funke’s former protégé, Juliana Olayode, also spoke about the actress’s assistance during her mother’s health challenges, recalling how she helped with the expenses of her mother’s fibroid treatment.

Actor Alesh Sanni similarly shared an experience in which Funke provided financial assistance to someone who needed money for medical bills.

He said the actress had helped on several occasions and preferred that some of her charitable acts remain private.

Temi’s account has added to the stories shared by people who have received support from the filmmaker.
