He however states that it is barely a week after the movie started showing on Netflix.

He wrote:

“Can you imagine how these people spoil people’s business? Common, this movie is not even 1 week old and it’s already selling in traffic for N150. This is bleeped up and sad after all the work a person will put into a movie? Naaaaa COMMON!”
