Nollywood actress, Adunni Ade, has celebrated her latest feat as she is mentioned among the ten Women Kings of Box Office who has been ranking since 2020.
The list which was compiled by the Nigeria Box Office has notable actresses and filmmakers like Toyin Abraham, Funke Akindele, Mo Abudu, Chinney Love and others.
Celebrating her achievement, she shared how grateful she is to be listed among the women leading the Box office.
In a lengthy post, she stated how she had been inspired by a few others like Funke Akindele since the days of Jenifa, Jade Osiberu’s Sugar Rush and others.
She wrote, “To be celebrated alongside these great women in film beyond me. I have come across some women who have impacted me as an Actor and a new filmmaker.
“When I decided to get into Nollywood a decade ago. I looked up to sis @funkejenifaakindele Her “Jenifa” character was pretty much my behavior whenever I came across any Nigerian in Kentucky. I met her in New York and she was the sweetest soul! I loved her charisma and looked forward to the day we’d work together which eventually happened in Season 2 of Jenifa.
“You’ve been very supportive and I’m thankful! Unknowingly to @jadeosiberu, you pushed me into making my own project with your film “sugar rush”. I was in tears the day I watched it and immediately started my planning on how I would make a film. I actually contacted her to direct SOOLE. Though I haven’t worked with you yet, it’s something I’m looking forward to!
“My sister @biodunstephen I met you when I freshly came into the country. I always looked forward to that day we’d be together and it has taken a decade for that to happen and I can’t wait for the world to see what you’ve created.
“Thank you Aunty @moabudu for having me on “Sons of the caliphate” I admire your tenacity in filmmaking!
“@filmoneng thank you for this. The show doesn’t stop! We keep it moving! 2 New projects coming your way soon.”
