Reacting in an Instagram post on Wednesday, Sarah accused Adanma of negligence, saying that she failed to provide the necessary amenities for the production.

She wrote:

“Finally we lost him! Very nonsense low-budget movie trying to raise local standards without providing the necessary amenities! Now we’ve lost a star, a father, a son, a brother, a husband and innocent crew members hustling to feed their families! Adanma Luck you do this one!”

Reacting in the comment section of the post, Uju and Destiny cautioned Sarah against apportioning blame.

“Sarah SHUT UP for Christ sake….haba,” Uju wrote.

“There is time for everything Sara na haba… this is totally wrong,” Destiny Etiko added.
