He explained that his outburst was driven by the intense pressure of the movie’s promotion, coupled with criticism from people he felt had failed to support him.

Lil Win’s apology comes only days after he publicly lashed out at industry colleagues, following an interview granted by his former protégé Sandra Ababio on Emelia Brobbey’s Okukuseku TV show.
In one viral clip, the actor vowed never to appear on any media platform owned by some of his Kumawood colleagues. He also accused several of them of exploiting their fame to engage in questionable money-making ventures.
