TOBI Premieres In Grand Style

The highly anticipated premiere of the movie, TOBI, finally held recently at the Qzone Cinemas, Yaba, with all the grandeur one could imagine.

The premiere of the movie packaged by Augusta Okon’s Wise Insight, had in attendance scores of celebrities and movie lovers, who were treated to a pot pourri of light music, canapés and munchies, during a red carpet reception that heralded the screening of the movie.

Emmanuel Ijeh, the young United States-based Nigerian producer of the movie, that had a mix of Nigerians, Americans and Hispanics as cast, stormed the premiere in company of the American lead actor, Mark Williams and Nigerian born, US-based actress, Chisom Oz Lee.

Ijeh told Showbiz Trends that the movie was shot in New York and New Jersey. He said his dream was to bring the Nigerian movie industry closer to its American counterpart, Hollywood.

The movie boasts of a deployment of first class legal battle antics beautifully woven into the court room scenes.
