Speaking with Premium Times, the movie maker said his article may have been misunderstood.

He said, “I didn’t write from every context. It was because of the encounter I had with him and not necessarily a comment on his marriage.”

Zik Zulu added, “A lot of people wished he was still alive so they could render some form of assistance to him. You won’t believe the calibre of people who called.

“Some were top-ranking military officers , mostly northerners. Because he spoke the Hausa language fluently, they said he was one of them and wished they knew of his issues while he was alive so they could render some assistance.”
