Nollywood actress Juliana Olayode has opened up about how her friendship with veteran actress Funke Akindele was restored, attributing the reconciliation to divine guidance.
In an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Juliana expressed heartfelt gratitude for the renewal of their bond, revealing that she had spent years praying for the relationship to be mended.
“I am so grateful to God that we are besties again. All those years, I kept saying to God in my prayers, requests that He should restore our friendship. Like, I don’t care if I don’t get to work with her on her project again. I don’t even want it; what I want is to be able to go to her house freely, laugh with her, see her, and greet her. When I wrote it to God in my prayers, it wasn’t to get back with her on Jenifa Diary, it was just the relationship, because she has been there for me,” she said.
Juliana rose to fame for her role as Toyo Baby in Jenifa’s Diary, a show created by Akindele. Her exit from the series had fueled speculation about a rift, which she later confirmed, making the rekindling of their friendship a significant personal milestone.
