Funke Akindele, JJC Skillz fuel marital crisis rumour
Factual Pursuit of Truth for Progress
Celebrity couple, Funke Akindele and her husband, JJC Skillz, have stirred buried rumour about a possible marital crisis.
The couple, who were rumoured to be going through differences in their home weeks ago had debunked the news when JJC Skillz had publicly declared his love for his family stating how he missed them while he was in London.
However, in a twist of events, the two have been spotted acting strange at an event they both showed up for.
The AMVCA nominee party was held yesterday and as always many notable celebrities showed up to celebrate.
Funke was reported to have arrived first in a separate car with her husband who appeared later in another car.
It was also gathered that the two avoided each other throughout the event. The couple, who are known for their cute alluring pictures didn’t take any together as they were seen apart all through.
The rumour about them had started when a blogger stated that JJC Skillz left the house for another apartment in Lagos when Funke insisted he leaves based on their differences.
Report also said that Funke claimed to have been the sole owner of Scene One productions and her husband can not spend the way he likes because she owns the production company.
Although the couple didn’t address this when the rumour spilled, it was assumed they were back to their usual selves.

Watford decline to sign Super Eagles player Peter Etebo permanently from Stoke City
??????
Watford football club will not activate their option to sign Super Eagles midfielder Oghenekaro Peter Etebo permanently from Stoke City, according to new reports.
Watford based paper, the Watford Observer in a new report on Tuesday, May 17, said that the club’s new manager Rob Edwards doesn’t see him as part of his plans due to his injury concerns.
Following a nice start to his career at Watford, injury forced Etebo, 26, to miss out on months of football, after which he has been on the sidelines.
Watford have an option to sign him permanently should they wish to, but club sources have told the Watford Observer they do not think he will be needed.
The report reads;
New manager Rob Edwards is set for talks with club chiefs in the coming days, during which the current playing squad will be discussed, as the Hornets prepare to clear out players they think are either surplus to requirements, or will bring in money needed to help balance the books ahead of a season in the Championship.
And one such player who the club do not envisage as being part of their future plans is Etebo, who has been on loan from Stoke during the current campaign.
Decisions on the future of other players, like Juraj Kucka, whose contract Watford also have an option to extend by a further year, are yet to have been made and will depend on how those conversations with Edwards play out.
Rob Edwards was present at Vicarage Road for Sunday’s 5-1 defeat to Leicester City, as he saw his new club play in person for the first time since his appointment.
Etebo has featured in just 10 games in all competitions for the Hornets this season, nine Premier League appearances and one in the Carabao Cup.
He missed the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon due to injury but returned to the squad for the 2022 World Cup playoffs with the Black Stars of Ghana in March.
