Adesuwa Shares Her Challenging Experience on the Set of Gang Of Lagos
Meanwhile, Adesuwa has shared her experiences of filming the controversial blockbuster movie, ‘Gangs Of Lagos’.
The film, which was released in April and directed and produced by Jade Osiberu, takes viewers on a thrilling journey through the bustling streets and neighborhoods of Isale Eko, Lagos.
‘Gangs of Lagos’ is a gritty, hard-hitting action film that follows a group of childhood friends as they navigate the challenges of growing up and finding their way in the world.
One of the cast members, Toyin Abraham, portrays a gubernatorial candidate who rallies for votes by urging the electorate to vote out the ruling government that has held the state hostage for years.
Adesua Etomi took to Instagram to share a video featuring herself, Tobi Bakre, and Chike on the movie set, where they appeared visibly exhausted.
Tobi expressed his frustration with the intense workload, jokingly remarking about his neck appearing longer due to the strenuous work, while Chike made a peculiar facial expression when the camera was pointed in his direction.
Recounting their experience, Adesua said, “Hyping ourselves, knowing fully well that we had seen sheeeggggeeee and our fineness wasn’t fining like it used to fine.
“Disclaimer: I’m not responsible for whatever Chike was doing in this video. Fenx. Signed by management.”
