Working with you for a year to make this film was beyond inspiring - your dedication to the year-long prep, which included a strict diet for 9 months, 3 days a week in the gym, and those very long and tedious hours on set, even through injuries you sustained in an accident," the actress wrote.
Recall Effiong announced the end of principal photography in April after a year of pre-production and filming in Lagos and Kaduna. The feature film also stars Sam Dede, Richard Mofe-Damijo, Shaffy Bello and Ade Laoye.
