Funke's mum passed on February 7, 2023, just weeks before Nigeria's general elections.
She probably couldn't publicly mourn her mum's passing because of her political ambition, as she was the deputy governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Lagos.
However, now that the elections are over, she took to social media to share clips and photos of some of her colleagues who attended her mum's burial ceremony weeks ago.
