Speaking in an interview, Francis Odega said he "honestly didn’t think it was going to become a global thing. In the script for real, that line Gerrara Here was not included. I created it but not knowing it was going to blow."
 
He continued;  "The movie is about 3 or 4 years old but it started trending now which means that God’s hand is involved in it. I feel fulfilled really, I feel like a superstar that I am already anyway and I feel elevated now because I have gone a step higher right now." 
 
The comic actor has now joined the millionaires league, enjoying commercial relationships with big brands, including Etisalat.
