He specifically mentioned her deleting political posts on Instagram and focusing on her film career.
The Youtuber admires the filmmaker’s ability to quickly shift gears and focus on her professional endeavors (hustles) after facing a setback in her political aspirations.
Pooja view Funke Akindele as a role model who inspires him through her dedication and focus on her goals.
In his words:
“Funke Akindele deleted all her political posts on Instagram, went to location & shot the best movie in Nigeria in less than a year after the election.
She moved on to her hustle, focus & produced madness.
In terms of switching & focusing on hustles, she’s my ROLE MODEL. 🙏”
