I absolutely loved her back then. I also loved the way Sola Sobowale interpreted her roles. She inspires me whenever I see her on a movie set.\u201d<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Reminiscing on her first encounter with Sobowale, she said, \u201cBefore I got into the industry, I admired Sola Sobowale because she knows her onions. One day, I got a call to come on set for a movie titled, \u2018Ohun Oko So Mi Da\u2019.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe movie was produced by Aunty Sola and I was shivering when I got to the set. I asked myself, \u2018Would I be able to act in the presence of my role model?\u2019 I went to a corner and prayed to God and told myself, \u2018This is my opportunity. I shouldn\u2019t allow Aunty Sola overshadow me. I should let my star shine.\u2019<\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\">According to her,\u201dUnfortunately for me, in that particular scene, I wasn\u2019t meant to talk at all. I acted the role of her husband\u2019s secretary and was dating her husband. She came to my character\u2019s house to warn her. I was not supposed to say anything but I thought that as an up-and-coming actress, she would just kill my \u2018star\u2019 if I didn\u2019t say anything.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cGuess what I did. I gave myself lines. As she was ranting, I was reacting to her rants. When she held me, I put my hands inside her brassiere. She just told the director to end the scene at that point, asking where they found \u2018this kind of girl\u2019.\u201d<\/div>\n<div class=\"mrf-adv sRoba mrf-preInsertedMad mad\" dir=\"auto\" data-placement=\"\" data-madtype=\"sRoba\" data-sectionid=\"entertainment\" data-virtualpageid=\"4\" data-loadstrategy=\"onScroll\" data-refreshfrequency=\"0\" data-layout=\"inline_square_details_s\" data-invalidatelayout=\"false\" data-loadonevent=\"navigationChange\" data-navigationlevel=\"1\" data-scrollposition=\"4\" data-madprocessed=\"true\" data-madid=\"131\" data-emptymad=\"true\">\nAigbe stated that she learnt consistency and doggedness from her mother. \u201cI learnt being dogged from my mum. She is a very strong woman, who never gives up. She is very consistent and hardworking.
