Funke Akindele is set to rule the entertainment industry in 2015 with the announcement of her new TV series; Jenifa TV.

Last year, she won a host of awards, and lots of million dollar endorsement deals. On the other hand, she also had to settle a messy separation from her husband Kehinde Oloyede, Akindele AKA Jenifa is determined to begin the year 2015 with a bang. She will be launching the TV series Jenifa TV which continues the story arc of the popular Jenifa movies.

Prompt News Online comments on the pilot of the series thus: “From the preview, it is more convincing, impressive and evident that the character is not going to die soon. Just like the movie version, Jenifa will rule the charts in 2015 with Jenifa TV series, TV reality show and a radio talk show”

On the series, Funke herself comments: “I actually wanted the character to take a deserving rest but I’m amazed that many years after, the Jenifa’s character still resonates. Anywhere I go, it is welcome, and people love to see, hear that part of Jenifa in me. I want to believe that my potrayal of Jenifa this time will be loved more by the viewers of the drama series.

There will be more chemistry with co-actors. I must quickly add that a good number of actors in the original Jenifa are involved; alongside new faces and that will be the highlight of the show“.

The year seem to have started well for many celebrities in the entertainment industry this year. Wizkid just released a new video Ojuelegba off him last album; Ayo while D’Banj returned tothe Music scene with a new banger titled Feeling The Nigga
