This year’s edition of laffMatazz will
hold in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
On Easter Sunday- March 31, in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, NollywoodActress and Globacom Brand Ambassador,
FunkeAkindele-Oloyede, will co-host the comedy show, LaffMatazz, with
GbengaAdeyinka and Friends.
Popularly known as ‘Jenifa’ or ‘Sulia’ owing to
the funny role she played in her blockbuster movie, The Return of Jenifa, which
made over N35 million at the cinema, FunkeAkindele will co-host the show with
the convener of the event, GbengaAdeyinka.
Speaking with PREMIUMTIMES on the choice of
FunkeAkindele as the event’s co-host, Gbenga said “The choice of FunkeAkindele
was a no-brainer, she is highly talented and she is no doubt, a role model to
many. The youths and adults love her; with Funke, you can never go wrong.
“She has evolved over the years since she came
into public consciousness in that popular sitcom ‘I Need To Know’ which was the
toast of many at the time”.
He added that “the people of Ibadan would love to
have Funke in their midst, we urge them to get their tickets early as they will
see another side of the talented “SuliaKan, AiyetoroKan” as many often refer to
her.”
