One of Nigeria’s most successful filmmakers, Niyi Akinmolayan says it gives him joy that nearly 100 persons are able to earn enough money to meet their needs whenever he undertakes a film project.
Akinmolayan, who is the director behind the Nollywood hits The Wedding Party 2 (2017), Chief Daddy (2018), and The Set Up (2019), said this in a Wednesday tweet after wrapping up his latest effort, The House Of Secrets.
The Founder and Creative Director of Anthill Studios shared a photo of himself with the crew of The House of Secrets.
He captioned the photo, “It’s a wrap!!
“There are tons of reasons why people are in the film industry.
“My core reason is that every time I make a film, close to 100 people get to pay their rents, feed their families, buy a car, get married etc. These ones are even special because I’ve watched some of them grow from interns/production assistants to heads of departments.
“At Anthill studios, helping people grow and create their best is our main focus.
“I’m grateful we get to do this more often. Shout out to an amazing team.
“On to the next!!”
