AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'

### Describe the bug

I am using SMOTE to sample a binary classification dataset (churn or not). For multi-label, it works, but when I use the same function on a binary dataset it fails with the following error:

```
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'
```

My code is a simple call and fit:

from imblearn.over_sampling import SMOTE

```
def SMOTE_oversample(df, dep_var):

    data = df.drop([str(dep_var)],1).squeeze()
    target = df[[str(dep_var)]].squeeze()

    smote = SMOTE()

    data, target = smote.fit_resample(data, target)
    
    return data, target

data, target = SMOTE_oversample(churn, 'Churn_Yes')
```

Does anyone know why this error keeps popping up?

### Expected Results

SMOTE to run properly.

### Actual Results

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'

### Versions

```shell
scikit-learn 1.1.2
imbalanced-learn 0.9.1
python 3.8.9
jupyter notebook
```
