The event which was tagged ‘Meet-the-Stars’, had the likes of Femi Adebayo, the prolific producer who played the role of Ogundiji, the fearsome warrior; Fathia Balogun - a seasoned veteran of the screen who put up an excellent performance as the wife of Ogundiji; Ibrahim Yekini Itele - the powerful Gbogunmi who was depicted as a warrior with a heart and the delectable Bimbo Ademoye, a fans favourite who took on the role of Gbogunmi’s wife, in attendance.
Speaking at the event, Nola Adetola the Chief Executive Officer of Veritasi Homes was quick to throw a spotlight on the innovative thinking, depth and development that have characterised the Nollywood industry in the last few years.
