“Everyone knew how much I love her”-Actress Meg Otanwa on working on set with her idol, Bimbo Akintola

For Nollywood star Meg Otanwa, the adage “Dreams do come true” is not far-fetched.

Bimbo Akintola, a movie star who grew up idolizing her senior colleague, can’t believe her good fortune in landing a job with her.

Meg opened up about working with the actor for the first time while posting several pictures from their filming location.

She recalled how she watched all of her films as a child and that she never concealed her admiration for the actress.

She praised Bimbo as the best of the best, an incredible thespian, and an all-around amazing human being.

Meg Otanwa proclaimed outright that Bimbo Akintola is the best actress ever from Nigeria and her favorite actress.

“Growing up; we had one simple rule in picking which Nollywood movie to watch; if Bimbo Akintola is in it, we are watching it no matter the language the movie is in.

Everyone in my house knew how much I loved her. I knew she was an incredible actor, the best of the best. I often imagined being able to act like her.

Getting to work with is such a full-circle moment for me. Such an incredible thespian and she is an all-around amazing human being.

If you ever wondered who my favorite Nigerian actress is, it’s no other than BIMBO AKINTOLA. She is the G.O.A.T. Love you loads big sis @bimboakintola.

And oh my babies are also a delight @mrmacaroni1 @femijacobs”.
