Fans and non-fans however discussed the reason behind Funke’s absence, having featured in House of Gaa, which was nominated. She also released Everybody Loves Jenifa in 2024.

TheTalk.NG recalls reporting that fans of Funke kicked over the failure of her movie ‘A Tribe Called Judah’ to clinch any award at the 10th AMVCAs.

Meanwhile, Funke holds the record for the most nominated actress/filmmaker at the AMVCA and holds the record for most wins for an actress with six, including winning Best Actress in a Comedy in 2016, 2017, 2020, and 2022.
