Nollywood actress, Funke Adesiyan, has enrolled in the prestigious New York Film Academy in the United States of America (USA).

The actress joins the likes of Kunle Afolayan, Stephanie Linus, Banky W and others who have passed through the school.

In an interview some months back, the actress revealed that not having the opportunity to be a lawmaker in the Oyo State House of Assembly during the last general election in 2015 on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will not deter her career.

“I have always said that no knowledge is waste, no matter how little. I want to go for my Masters programme now that I have the time,” she had said in the interview.

We learnt the actress has resumed already and she is expected to spend first three months at the academy and then return to Nigeria before going back again for another three months.

Funke said she may love cars, fashion and luxury but "nothing pays more than education."
