The Losing Daylight exhibition is such an important piece of preserving Old Nollywood.
I’m so proud of the work Nicole and Taiwo are doing 👏👏

Kudos to everyone who worked towards bringing the #LosingDaylight Nollywood film history exhibition to life.

Two times a charm, there’s clearly a market for more interesting stuff like this. 🔥

We captured one of the many warm hugs I got from Mama J. She spoke about the rebirth of Theatre. She took us to her childhood and brought us back to present day.

I was young and did not fully understand ‘Checkmate’. When I was 7, I understood ‘Violated’ to a good extent. It was the family centred/friendly story on VHS. I always admired @OfficialEgoBoyo. More to come.
Almost 3 decades later, just see 👇🏽 #LosingDaylight

Celebrating film history in Nigeria will be in incomplete without honouring the music that lived rent-free in our heads.

We will be closing Losing Daylight on Friday with #SoundtrackLive, an evening of the music from the movies that made us. 🎶
