Everybody Loves Jenifa has officially hit a historic 1.466 Billion Naira and counting at the box office, making it the highest-grossing film of all time.

The Funke Akindele’s movie, Everybody loves Jenifa has generated over a billion in the Nigerian movie box, enough to overtake “A Tribe Called Judah” (₦1,404,187,806) at the Nigeria box office.

The film’s distributor, FilmOne took to their Instagram page to announce the newest achievement.

“Everybody Loves Jenifa has officially hit a historic 1.466 Billion Naira and counting at the box office, making it the highest-grossing film of all time! A massive THANK YOU to our incredible audiences in Nigeria and Ghana for making this dream a reality! Your support is everything. On to even greater heights! Still showing in cinemas near you—experience the magic on the big screen,” the post said

Akindele has done it again, this time, even bigger. In less than two weeks, the film surpassed ₦1 Billion.

If we take a trip down memory lane, Funke has been dominating the Nigerian box office for years.

Last year, her film A Tribe Called Judah made history as the first Nollywood movie to cross the ₦1 billion mark, enforcing her legacy as the queen of the big screen.

The Jenifa franchise is more than just a movie series; it’s a movement. Funke’s beloved character, Jenifa, first captured hearts in Jenifa’s Diary, a hit TV series that brought humour and life lessons in equal measure.

With Everybody Loves Jenifa, Funke has taken her iconic character to new heights, delivering a story that’s both hilarious and heartfelt.

Everybody Loves Jenifa has an amazing cast lineup including the duo Funke Akindele (Jenifa), and Folarin ‘Falz’ Falana (Sege).

Others include Jackie Appiah, Nancy Isime, Stan Nze, Bisola Aiyeola, Patience Ozokwor, Chimezie Imo, and  Isaac Olayiwola ( Layi Wasabi).
