Speaking with PREMIUM TIMES, Iyabo Ojo revealed that she was playing a naughty character in this film, but the only challenge she had was working late at night; she said, “We had to shoot very late at night, sometimes until the wee hours of the morning, it was a bit difficult for me because I like my sleep. But it was fun."
Some cast members of PalavaBBNaija star Akpofure, who was cast in this film, revealed that it was his first feature film and was happy with his character as he already fit into his regular lifestyle.
He pointed out that casting bullies is his biggest challenge, and he said, "The hardest part for me was rolling with these actors in the cast because they're people who put their names on Nollywood, but it was my first movie and look at the cast.”
"However, it was amazing to see people guiding me, saying, 'Okay Neo, I know it's your first time, do it like this, and every time they put me in this light, it was very welcome to see that I could be so comfortable with these people and I thank God for the experience.
