Her statement thus read {every quoted statement was edited for clarity purposes}:In recent times, especially during the elections, we had issues that are not really blown but there were undertones, like ethnic division between the Yoruba and Igbo. That isn’t good for us because I believe in one Nigeria.

“This film aims to unify the Igbo and Yoruba culture. It is to tell us that regardless of our differences or the diversities, we are one, we should love one another and celebrate one another. It is also to tell us that we might have issues, but we should forgive one another and move on. It is a big project film, large-scale film.

About her take on the cast, she further stated that: The film marries the old Nollywood and the new Nollywood. In the movie, we have Charles Okafor’s comeback into mainstream Nollywood. He has been off the scene for a while.

“There is Chiwetalu Agu and icons like Sola Sobowale. There are also Youngies like Tomi Ojo, Taiwo Peters, and Phyna. And if there is anything like middle Nollywood, we have Mercy Aigbe, Adeniyi Johnson, and Omowunmi Dada, who played Ada. It is a mix of old, new, and medium Nollywood. It is a beautiful film.

“If you see Omowunmi and Charles Okafor, you will see some sort of resemblance. More so, they are fantastic actors. I knew that they would kill their roles, which they did. Everybody brought their A-game and did awesome.

From the stables Kazim Adeoti, the Co-Executive Producer of the movie, stated: This is a large-scale project. Even though I have had about 15 years of experience in the industry, what I learned from the set was different. You won’t be disappointed. It is a movie from which you would learn a lot because it is educative with a lot of take homes.

This is surely going to be one of the biggest projects so far and we already have our eyes on it and our popcorn ready for, “Ada Omo Daddy”
