In other related news, Legit.ng reported that Nollywood actor, Seun Sean Jimoh, also reacted to Funke Akindele's arraignment. According to him, Nigerians, including the government, are hypocrites who enjoy seeing the downfall of others.

Jimoh also said that Nigerians do not practice what they preach because he is sure that nobody has adhered 100% to the social distance order.

The actor said that social distancing is not a law but an imploration by the government to stem the tide of coronavirus. He then asked what the government arrested the actress for.

Jimoh also asked why Akindele was arrested when the governor of Oyo state was seen holding a political rally and saying that there is nothing like coronavirus in his state.
