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..!”
