The fact that Funke Akindele is Africa’s box office queen is no longer news. She became the first Nigerian director to earn over N1.4 billion at the box office in January of last year with her 2023 feature, A Tr!be Called Judah. Given that Funke is among the most diligent women in Nollywood, many were not surprised. The highest-grossing Nollywood films ever are her flicks from the last three years: Omo Ghetto The Saga, Battle On Buka Street, and A Tr!be Called Judah.
