Nollywood actress Juliana Olayode

Actress Juliana Olayode has prayed for her senior colleague Funke Akindele on the latter’s 45th birthday.

The former Jenifa’s Dairy star shared Funke’s photo of Instagram on Wednesday, praying for God’s protection on Funke and her family.

She wrote: “A happy birthday to you Ma. May the Lord always be your shield, your glory and the lifter up your head. I pray the lord’s blessing on everything on you, your family and everything you do.

“I pray God’s protection on you always, may all your dreams come true and may God may your joy complete (Amen).”

The Lagos-born actress gained popularity after featuring as Toyosi aka Toyo Baby in Funke Akindele’s comedy series.

Juliana Olayode fell out with Funke in 2017 after she demanded an increase in her fee which was said to be N3,000 per episode back then.

That led to her exit from the show and a strained relationship with Funke.
