|By Oko-Echem Agnes

Nollywood heavyweights Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham have put to rest long-running rumors of a feud, showing up together in a display of warmth and camaraderie at a recent movie premiere.

The award-winning actresses, often pitted against each other by fans and industry chatter, were spotted sharing laughs and a private chat during the premiere of Wunmi Toriola’s film, attended by skit maker Kiekie.

In a now-viral clip, Akindele danced to the music before pausing to engage Abraham in conversation. Their lively interaction drew playful teasing from Kiekie, who later joined Akindele on the dance floor.

The moment followed Abraham’s earlier public note to Akindele, where she admitted that fan rivalry once stirred tension between them but clarified there had never been genuine hostility. Their reunion at the premiere now appears to have finally silenced speculations about a bitter rivalry.
