A certain Instagram user, named Cassandra Owolabi, who claimed she once worked for the talented actress, and mother of two, Funke Akindele has put up a video through her Instagram handle to discredit the actress on the way she treats her staff.

The said ex-staff, Cassandra claimed she suffered physical, psychological, emotional and financial abuse while working for Funke. She alleged the first post put up by her to narrate her I’ll treatment was taken down through Funke’s orchestration in the bid to shut her up.

She however said she has now found her voice to make a second video. Here is the transcription of the video in part…

“Working for her was like an enslavement. I witnessed her physically assaulting a co staff… She landed that particular person a hot slap. She rips you off of your human right, as in you have no movement of speech or movement once you sigh up to work for her. You literally drop everything you were before you start working for her at the gate before you step into the confinement of the work space… She usually blackmailed us with her fanbase who she claim never believe anything negative said about her…

In a ost to accompany the video, Cassandra wrote:

FINALLY FOUND THE STRENGTH TO SPEAK UP AGAIN

“A little update: About a month ago, I posted a lengthy video of my experience working with Funke Akindele. But the video was quickly brought down as a bid to shut me up. Naturally as a content creator, my instinct was to make another one right away but I couldn’t bring myself to it due to the fact that I touched on a really sensitive topic (depression) and some experiences I passed through while working for her which was like opening old wounds and I needed time to heal from that.

“I am indeed happy and relieved that I finally got to make another video in which I touched on a few things because truthfully, even if I was given a day I would still not be able to cover all the ills not just me but her staff face daily.

“The experience has indeed taught me that not all that glitters is gold, literally! Looking back I just wondered how I endured so much when we were deprived of so many things. For instance, we couldn’t watch TV (literally, the TV in our lodge was taken away weeks after we resumed) and she mustn’t walk in on you watching anything on your laptop (can’t tell you how many times she randomly sent people to come check if we were sleeping or doing anything asides writing). I mean, how do you expect your writers to be 100% productive when you don’t allow them some leisure time? It didn’t take me long to develop bloodshot eyes because there were days when we’d write all through the night, no sleep. We worked under DURESS AND FEAR. It is always about the script, the script is more important than you and your health.

P.S – For the few who asked why my character in the YouTube series ‘HOUSEHELPS’ was replaced, well… Because I chose to leave she asked that I be replaced (no surprises there)”.

Funke Akidele-Bello is yet to respond to these fresh allegations leveled against her by this self acclaimed ex-staff.

However, recall that ‘Toyo baby, who reportedly left Funke unceremoniously laid claims to something similar about her.
