Nollywood superstar and NCDC Ambassador Funke Akindele found time to host a house party during the social-distancing period, stay-at-home period, and recorded videos which found their way to social media. The party which held in her Amen Estate apartment, had in attendance her husband JJC, Naira Marley, Eniola Badmus, former Lagos Governorship Candidate Gbadamosi and a host of other people. This has caused an uproar on Twitter as most people found it unprofessional, unwise and have called for her removal as an NCDC ambassador and even her arrest.
See the video from her party and also her advert for NCDC below…

Some people are more angry at the fact that i called Funke Akindele and her husband idiots, than they are about what they did.
If you excuse such behaviour, you are an IDIOT too.

Some of us said it was wrong to use Funke Akindele in that NCDC video, una say no, people look up to her, I hope you know the party she organized yesterday sent a message to those people who “look up to her” that Coronavirus is not that serious?

-NCDC Ambassador
-Dettol Ambassador
-Did two awareness videos on social distancing.Yet, Funke Akindele Invited Eniola Badmus and Naira Marley who returned from the UK into her house, as if that wasn’t enough, she threw a full house party.
This level of recklessness is insane!

Sidney pranked us, he got away with it. If the government doesn’t arrest everyone that attended that Funke Akindele’s house party, Maybe everyone should just go back to their normal lives and let the virus kill all of us 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️

Dear @NCDCgov,
Please I hope there’s a clause in the contract that Funke Akindele signed that spells punishment for the kind of idiocy she displayed yesterday hosting a house party despite being a NCDC ambassador.This is a total slap on the NCDC.
Pls RT till NCDC acts on this.

Funke Akindele and her husband are certified idiots.
This is beyond unreasonable, it’s disgusting.
— Sammy Desh (@Deshysmalls) April 5, 2020
Funke Akindele’s excuse is stupid, it is silly and is actually a shameful lie.
So Naira Marley has been living in your house for 14 days? That restless Naira Marley? Really?
And even if it were true
Why are people in your house for 14 days? Is it a Coronavirus isolation centre?— #OurFavOnlineDoc 🛂 (@DrOlufunmilayo) April 5, 2020
I thought they said No movement.. how did that crowd get to Funke Akindele’s house . I’m so sure naira Marley does not stay in Amen Estate with her. Are we flying now

Pay attention to what people do and not what they say.
A few million naira and a camera and Funke Akindele will say anything you want her to say regardless of whether she believes it or not.
What she did made the work harder for the NCDC she is supposed to be representing
— Aproko Doctor™ (@aproko_doctor) April 5, 2020
We all know naira Marley is mannerless, but what’s with funke Akindele?
That’s really reckless honestly, so many people kept their life on hold just so we could all work together to curb this virus and y’all there holding parties.
That’s fucked up mehn— 😍 Realest 😍 (@OZikroh) April 5, 2020
Funke Akindele is not alone in this social distancing compliance, Tinubu himself is the Jagaban of this lockdown.
They are leading by example.pic.twitter.com/28KlndIHEF
