Former
Jenifa's Diary star Juliana Olayode aka Toyosi is reportedly making
moves to reconcile with her former co-star and boss Funke Akindele the
CEO of Scene One productions.
Toyo
baby, as she was fondly called on Jenifa's diary posted something that
looked like a hint on her page saying she made moves to call someone she
had been wanting to call for a long time.
Juliana's
tweet which ended with #ThanksForPicking, made many believe Funke
Akindele might be the one she might be reconciling with. The tweet reads
in full;
I
finally made the call It was so good hearing your voice again I love
you and I miss you I hope we laugh together again soon
#thankyouforpicking#youknowiloveyou#imissyou
However,
at the end of her post, she added the hashtag, #ThanksForPicking… This
had made people believe that the receiver of the call could be her
former boss Funke Akindele.
Recall
that in a cryptic message in the last days of March, Funke Akindele
shared on Instagram, the Jenifa's Diary star said she would not stop
making stars out of individuals even if those she helped do not
appreciate it.
According
to the CEO of Scene one productions, "only God repays kindness, so
expect less from people you have helped." Although Funke Akindele
mentioned no names and didn't even personalize the message, many pointed
fingers at former Jenifa star, Juliana Olayode a.k.a Toyo baby to be
the object of Funke's rants. The actresses have not been able to go back
to being friends, since Juliana's unceremonious departure from the
series.
Sources
close to the two colleagues, claim that money was the root of their
problem. Apparently, Funke Akindele removed Toyo baby from the series
because she demanded for more pay a source revealed to TNS. Akindele via
her production manager and younger sister Abimbola, pays actors between
N3,000 and N150,000 (per episode/season of the show) depending on their
role.
Toyo
baby's request did not go down well with Funke, because she felt Toyo
was being an ingrate since she rose to fame via her appearance on the
Jenifa's Diary Show.
