The scene has sparked a heated debate on social media, with some calling them Nollywood’s best kissing ambassadors 💋. Some fans are loving the chemistry between the two actors, while others are dragging Etim Effiong for taking on too many romantic roles despite being married.
Bolaji Ogunmola has since addressed the backlash, explaining that the kiss was necessary for the movie’s narrative and that Etim was simply playing a character. “It was just a scene, guys! 😂 We’re professionals, we know what we’re doing,” she said in a recent interview.
