“She made the promise when she visited the agency last month.”
Funke had expressed a desire to collaborate with the fire service during her courtesy visit to their office in Alausa in July.
She announced plans to incorporate fire prevention themes in her film to help reduce fire outbreaks in the state.
The Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service welcomed the collaboration, noting that it aligns with their mission to promote safety and prevent fire-related incidents.
This collaboration aims to educate the public on fire hazards and promote proactive measures to prevent fires.
In April, Funke Akindele announced on Instagram that her upcoming film, Everybody Loves Jenifa, a spinoff from the Jenifa franchise will premiere in December.
