After a successful run in the cinema with a record-breaking film, Funke Akindele has increased her net worth through a new partnership with MonieWorld, a product of Moniepoint Inc.
This was recently disclosed by the well-known cultural figure and celebrated actress, producer, and director in Nollywood. The influential cultural icon and award-winning actress, filmmaker, and Nollywood producer revealed this recently.
Funke Akindele stated, “I am thrilled to become a part of the MonieWorld family.” “I’ve always thought that growth stems from diligence and dependability. MoneyWorld upholds these ideals by ensuring that progress isn’t impeded by distance.
The actress went on to say, “Our shared understanding of what it means to create something that serves people and positively impacts the lives of Nigerians in the Diaspora is what makes this partnership meaningful.” It all comes down to having the freedom to create your life wherever you are, and this goal aligns with my own experiences and the tales I share.
The partnership brings together two forces dedicated to facilitating advancement for Nigerians navigating cross-border life.
“Until it moves with ambition, with people, and with purpose, progress doesn’t start,” stated Ravi Jakhodia, CEO of MonieWorld. Funke Akindele is a living example of this idea. Her career exemplifies the same principles upon which we have founded MonieWorld: reliability, consistency, and a steadfast tie to the communities that influenced her path. Her brilliance spreads, as evidenced by her breaking records in the UK and Ireland and dominating the Nigerian box office. We created MonieWorld for individuals just like her and others who are establishing lives abroad, adjusting to new systems, and maintaining strong ties to their homeland.
This partnership is based on the mutual understanding that progress is a journey that crosses continents and is supported by the ability to establish smooth financial ties to one’s home country. Funke Akindele’s professional accomplishments demonstrate her unmatched impact in Nigeria and the world’s diaspora. She has redefined the commercial scale of African cinema and is the most decorated person in AMVCA history with ten wins. Her 2025 blockbuster, “Behind the Scenes,” broke records as the highest-grossing Nollywood film ever in the UK and Ireland and became the first Nollywood film to earn over N2 billion at the West African box office. Akindele has established herself as the undeniable “Queen of the Box Office,” earning over N4.7 billion in her career to date. The Hollywood Reporter named her one of the “Most Influential Women in International Film.”
