Her ability to switch emotions, from anger and determination to vulnerability and love, was truly remarkable. Iyabo Ojo’s performance was so convincing that it felt as if she truly lived and breathed the character she portrayed. She brought an incredible amount of energy and passion to her role, effectively capturing the essence of an activist fighting for justice and a mother fiercely protecting her loved ones.”
