She argued that quantity without meaning was a waste of resources and a disservice to audiences.
Aje Funke went further, alleging that the film appeared to have been copied from the work of another actress, Papaya, and demanded to know who advised Barnabas before she greenlit such productions. She also questioned whether any censorship process existed for the actress's movies.
