If it's not money laundering, how did Funke Akindele's "A Tribe Called Judah" do those numbers? X user questions​

An X user with the handle @Nwunyeeggombute3 heavily criticized Funke Akindele's latest movie titled "A Tribe Called Judah" and rated it a 4 out of 10. She said that the movie was overhyped by viewers and doesn't deserve the credit people have given it. She suspected that the amount racked in across all cinemas where A Tribe Called Judah premiered was gotten through money laundering because the movie was basic. She compared it to the second movie she saw at the cinema titled "Breath of Life" and rated this a 9 out of 10, compared to the rating she gave Funke Akindele's movie.

The X user sparked tons of reactions with her review about A Tribe Called Judah and many countered her review. To some, Funke Akindele's movie was more entertaining and worthy of the hype. Here are a few reactions from the comment section:

@misshembe: It's okay to not like a movie. But money laundering? That's an allegation. Watch your mouth.
@omo_tah_rah: I slept like 5 million times watching Breath of Life that's my honest review
@lady_henriet: If you are sued now, you'll say "Freedom of speech". This is defamatory

Funke Akindele's blockbuster movie has reportedly racked in over 1 billion naira, making it the first Nollywood movie to gross that amount. The movie is available in cinemas and has received thousands of positive reviews from viewers.
