Recall the actress and her husband threw a party, on Sunday, at their residence at an estate in Ibeju-Lekki which was well attended by different celebrities.

This led to Funke Akindele’s arrest after a backlash on social media for putting lives at risk by encouraging the spread of Covid-19.

Her husband, JJC Skillz, who was not arrested, later turned himself in following demands for his arrest.
