According to Awobona, Funke Akindele actually called him to reach out to the late Jumoke on her behalf because she knew they were cool. He added that she insisted he made the call. When he did, he berated the late movie star for isolating herself.
In his words: “I
really don’t feel like saying anything about this but I need to let the world
know that Aunty Funke actually called me to ask of Jumoke because she knows we
were cool. She insisted I call her to be sure she is fine. I did, we spoke at
length and I complained about her isolating herself. May her soul Rest in Peace and May God forgive us
all.”
Some of the reactions gathered by Esther Oyeyemi
Lawyering includes:

one is to be blamed. May God rest her soul.”
Millatu_12:
“Everyone has something they are struggling with. U never know what aunty was
also battling with. Let’s not be too quick to accuse others.”
akereleomisore:
“Sorry to say this, so Funke doesn't have her number to call her? Is she not
one of her actress in Jennifer's diary movie? Hmmmmm ile aye, ma niraé
kololeyan.”
Cynthiachinny:
“The way you all are blaming Sister Funke makes it look as if her call would
have kept this lady alive today, please stop, you don’t know anyone’s struggles, you all know all that happened
to her last year right?”
ldoradoconcerns:
“Helpers sef dey need help, we are suddenly becoming saints on this APP..
always acting like Pope on people's cases.”
amdejavoo_: “I am
really a lover of Funke Akindele but truth be told Nigerian celebrities have
nothing to offer their fans. They act like Demi gods to their fans that’s why I
don’t and I will never hype any of them.”
wummyjegs2017:
“Plss let the dead rest, let us not forget that Funke Akindele didn’t kill her nor is
she her relation, so
let us stop this sense of entitlement and the judgement……God knows best, He giveth and taketh, may the dead find peace and rest
well.”
