In a viral video, Lande recounted his experience, describing Akindele as unapproachable throughout the production. He revealed that despite spending a month working at Amen Estate while commuting from Ayobo, he was shocked to receive just ₦90,000 as compensation.

Lande recalled how Akindele had reached out to him via direct message after liking one of his social media videos. Excited about the opportunity, he did not initially charge her, believing it could be his career breakthrough.

However, the comedian admitted that he learned a valuable lesson from the experience, vowing to set a fee for anyone who approaches him for work, regardless of their status. He advised emerging creatives in the entertainment industry to always demand their worth rather than viewing anyone as a deity.

Lande also noted that during the month-long shoot, he never managed to take a photo with Akindele due to her distant attitude. Reflecting on the situation, he stated that if he were approached now, even by global icons like Michael Jackson, he would not hesitate to name his price.
