Embattled actress,Eniola Ajaohas expressed deep gratitude as her movie, ˜Beast of Two Worlds; Ajakaju hit a milestone on its first day amid backlashes involving the ˜Best Dressed Female.

It was reported that the filmmaker had faced severe backlash after crowning the controversial transvestite Bobrisky as the ˜Best Dressed Female at the movies premiere.

In a post on her Instagram page, Eniola appreciated the effort of everyone who supported her movie as it marks a milestone of 16M views on its first day at the Box Office.

While appreciating Nigerians for forgiving her, and the lessons learnt, she praised the likes of Odunlade Adekola, Funke Akindele, and many others.

She wrote: The cinema run of AJAKAJU, #beastoftwoworlds has taught me lessons, lessons I will not forget in a hurry. But this is not the time to dish out the lessons because I am not yet an expert at the box office! Leave that to @funkejenifaakindele, @odunomoadekola, @femiadebayosalami, @iyaboojofespris @niyi_akinmolayan, @toyin_abraham and @realmercyaigbe what I am here to do today is to say THANK YOU. Nigerians, I am grateful.

You allowed God to use you to turn my shame into testimony, sorrow into joy, and fear into courage. Eshe gan. I am glad we made 16m in one day, what an opening! But it is important I let you all know that this place I am in now is a journey that started before today. I am grateful to my dearest Boss @odunladeadekola for taking me under his wings and leading me through this part. He co-directed this movie, lent me money, and was there through and through. My Nollywood story wont be complete without him. Eshe gan. To my daddy @adebayotijani, thank you for being a good director. You helped me succeed.

I am grateful to my colleagues from the Yoruba industry for standing by me, for posting, for reaching out, for meet and greet, and many other things. I am grateful to fans who have sent gifts, and money, and offered moral support. God bless you. To my boss @femiadebayosalami and his beautiful wife @iyanaladuke thank you for your understanding. And to those who were dragged and trolled because of this movie, @dayoamusa, @bobrisky222, Nollywood, I am sorry but know that this success is for us all. You allowed God to use you to tell a beautiful story about me and Nollywood, Eshe gan. Oun rere la ma ba ara wase.

And to those who have said they will not support us-cast and crew-and are waiting for us to fail, I want to appreciate you too. It was because of you that I ran to God and Nigerians. See now, with God and Nigerians behind me, the story will end well. To those I offended, forgive me. Im just a small girl, treat me like your daughter and sister. Please lets keep watching #beastoftwoworlds #ajakajuthemovie in all cinemas nationwide. Lets create a new record together. @ajakajuthemovie, she wrote. (The Nation)
