Nigerian actress-turned-politician, Funke Akindele, has announced plans to contest for political office again after her unsuccessful attempt in 2023. 


Akindele was the running mate to the Lagos State governorship candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Abdulazeez Adediran, but they lost to Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the All Progressives Congress (APC).


Akindele revealed in a recent podcast that her experience in politics has taught her to be bold, courageous, and strong, adding that she also gained knowledge and acquired statistics data to inform her speeches.


Her comments have indicated that she is gearing up for another shot at politics, building on the lessons she learned from her previous attempt.
