Funke Akindele, a popular Nollywood actress and filmmaker, has claimed that she does not consider her two failed marriages “failures.”
In an interview with newsmen in Lagos, Akindele claimed that her mother taught her that there is no success without failure.
She says she simply accepts marriage “as it comes,” emphasizing that her mental health and job come first.
The actress revealed that her primary goal is to live a meaningful life and provide for her children and siblings.
“If you ask me now, can you name one failure? I don’t consider it a failure.
“My personal life, marriage – I just go with the flow. My mental wellness is vital for me. My career is extremely important to me, darling.
“I have to make an impact. I empower a lot of people. I need to motivate the young people out there. I must remain strong for my children and siblings. Why am I still alive? My head is up because I have a goal. Sure, I cry, sure, but after I cry, I just look in the mirror and say, ‘Keep moving”, Akindele concluded.
