According to her, while she respects Akindele as a senior colleague, they are not necessarily friends even though she greets her (Akindele) whenever they meet.
In her words:
"She's my senior colleague and someone I respect a lot and one of the few I look up to so I don't know what people are talking about, trust me. But sometimes, people don't understand that we are colleagues, not family. So, you cannot be talking to all your colleagues. We talk, we follow each other (online). A lot of people don't understand that because we work in the same place, we have to be friends. When I see her, I greet her. Trust me, forget social media."
