When I was about to shoot 'Fix Us' movie, I reached out to Jackie. I wanted to do it Yvonne Okoro, myself and Jackie Appiah, just as I've done with this recent on, Fifty Fifty.

Yvonne noted that Jackie might have had a tight schedule, hence her refusal to accept movie roles she had produced.

I guess she was busy. I gave her enough time but as a producer, you can't also just sit around. I called her on phone. I think she said she was going to be on another set at the same time. But I didn't know when. I think she had other plans.
