Star Actress, Funke Akindele has boasted that her next movie Everybody Loces Jenifa will rake in nothing less than Five billion.
The movie is set to hit the Cinemas December 13, twelve days before XMas 2024.

Speaking at a recent Exhibitor Soirée, Funke expressed her confidence stating, “We can beat N5 billion; I have faith.”
The actress also urged the audience to combat piracy, which had a significant impact on her previous film, A Tribe Called Judah.
“I plead with you guys, I know things are hard now, but I want to beg you to be security conscious. People use their phones to film.
“Remember what happened to us last year, with A Tribe Called Judah? Please let’s be very careful, let’s be vigilant. It’s our movie. We want to make money from it. Imagine what we would have made if A Tribe Called Judah wasn’t pirated.
“But we thank God. This is another opportunity, please protect this film for me. Please, I beg you in the name of God, no phones. We had to record a video to tell people, no recordings.”
