Abazee Productions provided all the equipment that we used to make the film. He encouraged me to go ahead and make this film.” Abayomi Olukanmi, founder and CEO of Abazee Productions said about the film, “Iyabo Ojo is one of Nollywood’s biggest stars so helping her make a film where she’s the lead was a no-brainer because I know that fans will come out to watch her.”
