On her view about the entertainment industry in Nigeria, she disclosed that the industry is still growing so there is still room for the industry to grow saying: “We are still there pushing it and we hope someday it will get better than the way it used to be. There was a time that we were actually going but at a point again, we started dropping but I believe that it happens and it goes.”
On why she has been off the movie industry the beautiful actress disclosed that, her going back to school has taken so much of her time adding that she just finished her last papers few weeks ago and moving to the practical stage. Sola kosoko said: “This is because I am now back in school studying performing arts at Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State. I am not there alone, I have my dad, Abbey Lanre, Fathia Balogun and Toyosi Adesanya. We just finished writing our last papers a few weeks ago. And we are yet to do our practical in stage performance. It was meant to be 6 months but this is our 9 months due to the unnecessary strike.”

Sola Kosoko said: “It is all for God. It takes only the grace of God to keep moving in that journey. I don’t bite more than I can chew. More so, my father’s advice has kept my marriage going because he told me then before I got married to be careful and watchful about any man that I want to marry, because after your marriage, there is nothing like coming back home as a divorcee. That alone keeps my marriage.” Sola Kosoko Abina, has been in the movie industry since 1999 and became prominent because of her dexterity in the role she played in the chart busting movie, Omo Olorire.
