In a recent interview with TVC alongside Femi Adebayo, the actress revealed that she had to learn Yoruba in order to carry out her role in the movie. She further stated that she had to go all out in learning the Yoruba used in the movie because it was not the regular kind of Yoruba spoken in Lagos State.
