Jegede went on to dispel the common perception of Funke Akindele as a carefree and playful person:
“When you see her on TV, you would think she loves to have fun, play around, dance, and be goofy. That’s a lie! She’s a very serious person when she’s on set.”

“Her commitment and preparation before stepping onto the set are remarkable. She possesses an intricate understanding of every department, which she executes to perfection. To be honest, she’s exceptional.”
