According to Funke and Eniola, it was difficult for them to get movie roles back then. Despite going for auditions, they were usually turned down.
However, Iyabo and Tayo intervened and asked movie producers to feature them in their films. Funke noted that Iyabo used to buy food for her and drove her in her classy red car. Tayo also gave Eniola some of her clothes back then.
In a video, Funke and Eniola were grateful for the support from Iyabo and Tayo. Nevertheless, Funke said that Iyabo not only has the habit of defending others, but she now fights on social media.
