Jumoke Aderounmu

Nollywood actress and filmmaker, Funke Akindele has debunked allegations that late actress Jumoke Aderounmu reached out to her during her battle with sickness that eventually killed her, but she ignored her messages. DAILY POST recalls that Aderounmu passed away on Saturday at the age of 40 after battling an undisclosed ailment.

Akindele, who worked with Aderounmu on her TV serial, 'Jenifa's Diary,' had taken to her Instagram page to mourn her. However, a brother of the deceased shared a post on his Instagram account, stating how someone who ignored his late sister during her predicament was now mourning her on social media. Many, who suspected he was referring to Akindele, thronged to the actress' page to lambast her.

And that was it. She acted her role, got paid and left. 'Recently, my attention was brought to a post by Jumoke's brother. He was so upset that nobody checked on Jumoke. I said I know he is grieving. I know it's not easy to lose someone. I've lost my mum. Nobody knows what I went through. I was depressed after losing my mum. 'So, I reached out to Jumoke's brother. I said, 'I'm so sorry. I feel your pain. Nobody told me that your sister was sick.
