Eniola further commended Nigerians for forgiving her despite her mistake, and for the lessons she has learnt through the situation.
She, however, extended her heartfelt appreciation to prolific movie producers and directors, Odunlade Adekola, Funke Akindele and many others.
She wrote, “The cinema run of AJAKAJU, #beastoftwoworlds has taught me lessons, lessons I will not forget in a hurry. But this is not the time to dish out the lessons because I am not yet an expert at the box office!
“What I am here to do today is to say THANK YOU. Nigerians, I am grateful. You allowed God to use you to turn my shame into testimony, sorrow into joy, and fear into courage.
“I am glad we made 16m in one day, what an opening! But it is important I let you all know that this place I am in now is a journey that started before today,”
