"I just think that it's because there are now more creative minds, and things are done a certain way now. We are now embracing the international market standard where we premiere our movies. It was not so before now. So that is why that word 'new Nollywood' was carved out. But I believe we are all Nollywood. Nollywood is Nollywood."
The actress who has produced over three films this 2016, also shared her inspiration. "Whenever I wake up, I'm looking for the next new thing to do, how to impact in my society." "Basically, having the love for the art in my heart, has been a wonderful inspiration so far."
