Nollywood actress Chioma Chukwuka-Akpotha has revealed how she prepared for her role in the recently released Netflix series, Seven Doors.
In Seven Doors, Akpotha portrays the role of an Igbo queen
married to a Yoruba king (played by Femi Adebayo), bringing to life a tale of kingship,
kinship, family, love, betrayal, and restitution. The role required her to
speak fluent Yoruba.
Appearing in a TVC interview alongside her co-star, Femi
Adebayo, the actress disclosed that she learned Yoruba specifically for her
role in the series.
She said, “I had to learn Yoruba for my role in Seven Doors.
The Yoruba in the movie was not the regular one spoken in Lagos State, so I had
to be very particular about the tone.”
