The Actors Guild of Nigeria has expressed concern over the controversy surrounding the break in the marriage between popular Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele, and her husband, Mr. Almaroof Oloyede, describing the development as “unfortunate.”
The Chairman of AGN, FCT, Abuja chapter, Mr. Onwurah Agility, in an interview with newsmen said some marriages were not meant to be.
He said, “Because I am an actor does not
mean I have to die in my marriage if it is not working out. We are
humans like others, blood runs in our veins like other people.
“Marriage in Nollywood is not
different from other marriages. But because we are the mirror of the
society, the face of the screen and role models to many, if there is a
problem in our marriage, it makes noise more than any other. There are
many people in the industry that have been married for many years
without separating.
“What happened to Funke (Akindele) is
unfortunate but like she said, may be they were not to be husband and
wife and she has learnt her lessons. It could have been anybody.
“The theory and stories that actors’
marriages don’t last are very wrong. I have been married for five years
and still counting, likewise so many other actors in the industry.”
Akindele, had while confirming the crash
of her marriage, said she had learnt from her mistakes and had no
grudge against her former husband.
