The talented film actor and director was nominated among other fast rising Nollywood actors to look forward to in 2024.

According to Top Charts Africa, Tobi Makinde, otherwise known as Shinene or Tinini, is one of the most refined, talented and hardworking.

In return, Makinde appreciated the writer for sharing such knowledge about him with the public and Funke Akindele for giving him the platform to be seen and recognized.

Makinde debunked the rumours that Funke Akindele doesn’t treat her workers right, saying that he wouldn’t have been where he is without the love, training and tutelage of the actress.

Speaking from experience, he stated that the movie star has been so kind to him, and her love for him is not something he will forget in a hurry.
