Nollywood filmmaker Funke Akindele is set to hit the box office in December and has been dropping snippets of her forthcoming movie ‘Everybody Loves Jenifa’.
In creating awareness for the coming movie, Jenifa, as the actress is fondly called, employed content creation as a marketing strategy, and she took it to another level.
The snippet had fun moments from the movie with colourful carnival-like scenes, as seen during Ojude Oba.
It has cast members like Dbanj, Broda Shaggi, Patience Ozokwor and Layi Wasabi, among many others, and many of the regular Jenifa's faces like Falz. She captioned her post:
"Beyond laughter, lies a story…, The Adventure! The Drama! The Thrill... It’s all coming soon… THIS IS JUST A TEASER…"
Funke Akindele making big money off Jenifa since 2008
The movie, an offshoot of Akindele’s ‘Jenifa,’ was released in 2008. She played the lead character, and the title became her sobriquet to this day. The same movie shot her into the limelight and made her a household name.
Following the success recorded by Jenifa, she started a television series titled Jenifa’s Diary, which ran for years.
A sequel to the excellent outing of the previous movies under Jenifa’s title, the producer of the N1 billion grossing movie, ‘A Tribe Called Judah’ has taken Jenifa to another level with the title ‘Everybody Loves Jenifa’.
