The moment happened during the premiere of “The Return of Arinzo”, an event hosted by actress Iyabo Ojo at the Balmoral Event Centre in Lagos.
In a video circulating online, Toyin Abraham was seen walking up to Akindele, seemingly trying to greet her.
However, Funke Akindele appeared focused on something else and did not respond to the greeting.
Following the snub, Abraham went on to greet Iyabo Ojo before stepping away from the scene.
The video has since triggered mixed reactions on social media, with many people sharing their opinions on what may have happened.
Some viewers believe the moment looked like an intentional snub, while others feel it may simply have been a misunderstanding or a brief missed moment.
