A video capturing the moment popular filmmaker and actress Funke Akindele appeared to snub her colleague, Toyin Abraham, at the premiere of The Return of Arinzo has stirred conversations across social media.
In the now-viral clip, Toyin Abraham was seen warmly greeting Iyabo Ojo and Mercy Aigbe before approaching Akindele.
However, as she attempted to exchange pleasantries, Akindele seemingly ignored her, prompting Abraham to quietly walk away from the awkward encounter.

The incident has since generated mixed reactions online. While some critics argued that Akindele could have set aside any personal differences and simply acknowledged the greeting, others defended her stance, suggesting there may be unresolved issues between the two actresses.
Reacting to the drama, one user wrote, “Don’t diss me online and act friendly when you see me in public.”
Another commented, “I’m not a fan of people talking behind your back, only to put on a fake smile when they see you. I’ll keep it real, if you come at me sideways, expect to be ignored.”
A different user, however, expressed disappointment, saying, “She could have greeted her. It doesn’t mean you won’t still have your misunderstanding, but at least respond to her. Don’t disrespect her like that.”
One remarked: “Even with this reason….that is a nonsense behavior.”
Others urged the public not to be quick to judge, noting that outsiders may not be aware of what transpired behind the scenes. Meanwhile, some viewers speculated that the exchange may have been influenced by the presence of cameras.
