There is room for improvement. We have to keep working hard to make sure that we are at our best at all times. In fact, permit me to say that we can’t say we have stopped improving. There are still many grounds to cover. The journey has just begun. We pray for more grace to keep pushing on. You have been consistent in raising your game and you don’t seem to be resting on your oars as this could be seen in the level of hard work you put in your work. What motivates you? My motivation comes from the Almighty God. I have no strength of my own. All I have done and will still do is deeply rooted in God’s motivation. His strength makes me strong. Why have you developed special interest in producing scary movies? Your question sounds funny. Well, I don’t know why I come up with such story lines. The stories just come to me and I swing into action. But trust me, I have produced some movies that are not scary.

How far can Yewande go to interpret a movie role? I can go to any length to interprete any role I am given in any movie but my clients know my stand regarding nudity in movies and my stand regarding featuring in scenes that are too sexually explicit. So they don’t even send me such scripts. Did you take this stand because you are married? This has nothing to do with whether I am married or not. I have always been like that, even long before I got married. A popular actress in Nigeria, last week, said sex scenes should be played and interpreted well, do you share her view on this? Yes, I do. If it must be done, then it should be done tastefully. For me, if it would be done, it should be classy and moderate.
