Actress Funke Akindele joined comedian Kamo in Lagos to celebrate his baby’s naming ceremony.
In a funny twist captured on video, skitmaker Erekere playfully “stole” her phone while she was deep in prayer, leaving everyone laughing. Social media users praised Funke for her selfless support and warm, motherly presence at the event.
Nollywood star Funke Akindele was among the prominent guests who arrived early to celebrate with popular skit maker Akinyoola Ayoola, also known as Kamo State, and his wife at the naming ceremony of their newborn.
The couple, who welcomed their first child on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, hosted friends and family at their Lagos home to mark the occasion, and videos from the private ceremony have since made their way online.
In one of the clips, Funke Akindele could be seen seated in the living room while decorators set up for the event outside.
She was also spotted helping the new mum with her outfit, showing her usual warm and supportive nature.
Another clip that sparked laughter online showed a hilarious moment between Funke and skit maker Erekere, known for his comedic habit of “stealing” from people in his skits.
During prayers at the naming ceremony, Funke could be seen jokingly clutching her purse tightly and keeping it away from Erekere while side-eyeing him with suspicion.
But despite her caution, Erekere hilariously managed to “steal” her phone from the purse without her noticing until later, leaving attendees in stitches.
