Popular Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele Bello, has described the past weeks of her life as a learning curve.
This comes after she was prosecuted by the government of Lagos State for breaking the social distancing rule to hold a house party for her husband, amid a lockdown over the coronavirus pandemic in Nigeria.
Funke and her husband, JJC Skillz, were sentenced to a 14-day community service and fined N100,000 each.
However, the actress in a video posted on instagram said she has learnt a lot of lessons through the process amid calls for people to stay safe.
“These past few weeks have been a learning curve but we must keep moving forward.
“My dear friends, coronavirus is real. We must collaborate with the Lagos State Government and Federal Government by staying at home, staying safe,” she urged.
