A young female entrepreneur broke down in tears of joy after Nollywood actress and filmmaker, Funke Akindele, wore a pair of handmade earrings she gifted her at the FinTribe Finance Fair 2026 in Lagos.
The emotional moment occurred at the fourth edition of the event, held at the Landmark Event Centre, Victoria Island, where the young designer approached the actress to present her handmade jewellery.
In the video which started trending on Sunday, the actress rather than simply accepting the gift, immediately wore the earrings and later showcased them on stage, drawing an emotional reaction from the entrepreneur.
Overwhelmed by the actress’s gesture and public support for her business, the young woman broke down in tears before sharing a warm embrace with Akindele on stage.
The actress also used the opportunity to promote the entrepreneur’s small business before the audience, drawing attention to her handmade products.
The fourth edition of the FinTribe Finance Fair, themed ‘I Can!’, brought together women, entrepreneurs and business leaders to discuss financial empowerment, wealth creation and enterprise development.
