Funke Akindele Bello has granted a lucky fan’s wish after the latter took to twitter to make a request of her.
The recently married actress gave a Twitter user who operates the handle-@IamAlmostOk, a chance to star in one of her productions after she tweeted at the 39-year-old.
The fan who seemed to be comically inclined given the tweets on her timeline, had written;
“Hanti, I want to hact in your movie. I don’t mind if I won’t say anything, I can just pass beside you in one of the scenes,” mimicking the Yoruba accented English of the star’s character – Jenifa, in the hit series- Jenifa’s diary.
Surprisingly, Funke Akindele had tweeted the response-
“Awwww ok dear, DM your contact ” at the fan in response to her request.
Awwww ok dear. Dm your contact https://t.co/NABXc2wtrJ

@IAmAlmostOk was obviously excited at the opportunity afforded her by Funke Akindele and noted her surprise. In the early hours of Wednesday, she also tweeted at rapper Falz who plays the role of Sege in the Jenifa’s diary series that she would be joining the cast soon.

Most times, we hear of musicians and comedians who kick start their career off social media but not much about actors. But now, Funke Akindele Bello has made it happen for an aspiring actress.
Seems like social media is becoming the place where dreams come true. Guess it wouldn’t hurt to tweet at Aliko Dangote.
What do you think?
