Renowned American actress and singer Jennifer Lopez has embraced Nigerian culture by adopting the name “Ifunanya.”
The suggestion came from Nigerian media personality Drea Okeke during a recent interview, and Lopez readily accepted it.
Okeke explained that the name perfectly suits the American superstar because she embodies a spirit of love, as “Ifunanya” translates to “love” in the Igbo language.
