    Funke Akindele Expands Business Empire with Global FinTech Partnership

    According to The Nation Online, Nollywood powerhouse Funke Akindele has officially secured a major ambassadorial deal with MonieWorld, a product under the Moniepoint Inc. umbrella. The deal is aimed at bridging the financial gap for Nigerians living in the diaspora.
    Akindele, who recently shattered cinema records with her latest film, expressed her excitement about the partnership, noting that the brand’s values of hard work and reliability align with her personal journey. She emphasized that the collaboration is about empowering Nigerians to build lives regardless of their location.
    The partnership marks a significant business move for the actress, further solidifying her status as a commercial magnet and a cultural icon. It also highlights the growing trend of FinTech companies leveraging Nollywood’s massive reach to connect with global audiences.
    This move reinforces Akindele’s “A-list” status not just in entertainment, but as a formidable entrepreneur. As the face of a diaspora-focused financial tool, her influence will likely drive high adoption rates among Nigerians abroad who already consume her content.
