Award-winning Nollywood actress Funke Akindele-Bello has thrown her weight behind Big Brother Naija 'Shine Ya Eye' housemate, Whitemoney.
With the start of nominations for eviction on Sunday, the movie producer took to her Instagram page on Monday to pool support for the housemate
Already seen as a strong contender for the grand prize, both wildcards, Maria and Pere, put Whitemoney up for eviction on Sunday.
Calling on her 13.6 Million followers to support the house’s cook, the actress wrote in the caption, "My guy is staying! Akpa Ego! You ain’t going nowhere! Oya where are my #jenifans !”
Whitemoney is presently up for eviction alongside Beatrice, Yerins, Niyi, and Yousef. His nomination by Maria came as a surprise to many of his fans who felt both housemates were good friends.
Commenting on the post, several fans of Akindele expressed commitment to ensuring Whitemoney does not leave the house by the end of the week.
