Adeola Aderounmu, Jumoke’s brother, publicly criticized Funke Akindele for what he perceived as insincere affection and hypocrisy, particularly in light of her recent comments about Jumoke’s passing.

“Aye & camera. To ba ri won kosa”, he wrote in Yoruba.

In a subsequent post, Adeola Aderounmu disclosed that his sister had attempted to reach out to Funke multiple times through phone calls, but Funke did not respond. He highlighted how Jumoke had even sought assistance from another protege of Funke Akindele, Paschaline Alex, yet still received no response from Funke before her untimely passing.

Expressing his bewilderment at the apparent insincerity, Adeola questioned the authenticity of the sympathy expressed by Funke Akindele after Jumoke’s demise. He contrasted this with the genuine support shown by others, specifically mentioning Rita Dominic and Sotayo Gaga for their compassionate gestures towards his family during their time of grief.

He wrote; “You wey dey call tire, wey no turn-up. She even sent Pascal to you, you still no reach out! Why the eye service now wetin she don kpai? Omo! Shout-out to Rita Dominic and Sotayo Gaga “.
