Reception
O Le Ku was said to have sparked the short aso oke Iro and Buba fashion trend also called Oleku.
It was listed as one of the ten iconic Nollywood stories from the 90s.
Akin Adesokan in his 2011 book described the film as "the best example of Yoruba language film in Nollywood regarding how the actors and actresses articulate their point of views in “undiluted” Yoruba language."
It has been adopted to teach foreign Yoruba Language learners in institutions in the United States and Europe due to the standard of Yoruba Language spoken in the movie.
