Nollywood screen siren Iretiola Doyle summarized some of her experiences in the fictional world.
Iretiola announced the news in a tweet, prompting a reaction from some fans.

Fortunately, in most cases, wisdom wins. Commenting on the project he is working on, his mother and grandmother are “a lot! Several films are coming out and a project that I’m really looking forward to.
Detailed information about each of them will be published in the near future.
