Mercy Johnson excitedly revealed Benson's comeback through a behind-the-scenes glimpse shared on her Instagram handle, capturing the heartfelt reception from the cast members as they welcomed the veteran actress.

This star-studded project boasts a stellar lineup including Mike Godson, Mercy Johnson, Evia Simon, Ozioma Maurice, and George Inaibeh, among others, promising a captivating cinematic experience.
