Nollywod Actress Motilola Akinlami has apologised in public for her remarks against Bolanle Austen Peters’ historical drama “House of Ga’a.”
Fans felt that Motilola was disparaging the filmmaker’s work when she posted her evaluation of the film in a since-deleted post.
Motilola made it clear on her Instagram page that her goal was to share her insights rather than to disparage anyone’s hard work.
She apologises for any misunderstandings her remarks may have caused and praised the expertise and effort that went into making the film.
While praising “House of Ga’a” for being a fantastic film with distinct flavours and viewpoints, Motilola pointed out that she was only able to see one side of the narrative.
She emphasised that different people have different opinions and apologised again for any offence caused.
The actress concluded by reiterating that “House of Ga’a” is a great movie and wished her followers a blessed week ahead.
She wrote:
“Apologies are in order as regards a post I did last week. After due reflection, I realised how that post may have been misconstrued to mean I was trying to bring down someone’s hard work.
“That, in fact, isn’t the case. It’s not in my character. I recognise the hard work and skill that went into putting together that beautiful work of Art.
“I merely made an observation that I took down about 2 minutes after I read it again and had a conversation with a couple of people. I see how that may have sounded the way it did.
“Having said that, HOUSE OF GA’A is a great movie that has its own flavours and add-ons, as there are many sides to a coin.
“I only saw my own side, and for this, I apologise. Again, I’m sorry if that came across the wrong way
I honestly didn’t mean for that to happen. Different strokes for different folks. I should have known better. My name is Motilola Akinlami, and House of Ga’a is a great movie. Have a blessed week ahead..!”
