Nollywood actress and box office queen Funke Akindele has speak on the reason she refuses to show the faces of her cute Twinz.
Speaking about how the social media space can affect them due to her status and integrity in the society.
She said People always ask me — and some even wonder — why I hide my kids, why I don’t post them online, and why I won’t use my popularity and influence to build a social media presence for them so they can gain recognition as they grow.

But listen, this showbiz industry is very toxic — and as many of you know, l’ve been a victim of cyberbullying and cyberstalking myself. Trust me, if you’re not mentally strong, these trolls can drive you crazy and push you into depression. I won’t let my kids become victims of that.
Sometimes I wish I could just shut down all my social media accounts, but I can’t — it’s where I make my money, and I don’t really have a choice. I have money, and it’s for my children to enjoy life. For now, I want them to focus on their education and keep enjoying my hard work.
When they’re old enough, they can choose for themselves – whether to open a social media account or live a private life like regular people. I’m not against celebrities who share their kids or families online — that’s their choice. This is mine.”
