With the upcoming movie

The movie which features the actress as Adaora Igwe, a lawyer who specializes in defending less privileged abuse victims, comes with quite a number of sexually explicit scenes.

Speaking during a press conference on June 21, 2017, the actress said she is ready for the criticism that would come with her sex scenes.

"What they gonna do," the actress said in a humorous manner.

"When I wasn't even confident, there was a movie called if I didn't die then, is it now?"

The sexy mother of four had come under attack years ago for her role in the Fred Amata movie, "The Prostitute," which starred her alongside Segun Arinze.

In a 2015 interview with Encomium, the actress revealed that the movie which she used a body double for, had threatened her marriage.

"You know, Nigeria was not ready for that, so there was a lot of controversies around that. So, that was the only time I really worried about my marriage," the actress had said to Encomium.

"And to be frank and candid, until my husband told me he wasn’t bothered, then I had peace.'

Directed by Moses Inwang and produced by Esther Eyibio, "Alter Ego" debuts on July 21, 2017.
