According to a statement by the commissioner for culture and tourism, Uzamat Akinbile-Yussuf, the govt views the film as a mockery of the Heritage of Lagos.
The Commissioner expressed her disappointment with the promoters of the film, Jade Osiberu and Kemi Akindoju, for portraying the Eyo Masquerade as a gun-wielding villain while adorning the full traditional regalia.
She described the content of the movie as derogatory of the culture, with the intention to desecrate the revered heritage of the people of Lagos.
Akinbile-Yussuf maintained that the Adamu Orisha, popularly known as the Eyo Festival, is rarely observed and only comes up as a traditional rite of passage for Obas, revered Chiefs and eminent Lagosians.
