The actress said it was her first experience of rolling with influential people and it eventually became an experience that didn’t mean so much to her. The star had to go away from her family as she was sent to boarding school in Kano State at the age of 9. “I remember when he was leaving, we were both crying. And as a child it kind of affected me because I thought he had other kids and I was no longer important to him,” Omotola recounted.

Sharing further, the movie star noted that at the age of 12 she started fantasizing about the idea of spending more time with her dad just like they used to do in the past. The actress disclosed that on a fateful day, officials from school came to inform her that she had to return home. A young Omotola said no one told her what happened but she knew it had something to do with death.

Omotola said getting home to meet a crown in front of her house and how she eventually saw her wailing mother before realizing that her dad was the one who died. According to her, the experience has affected her up to adulthood.
