Last night at KAP Film Village & Resort, I hosted a small party for some filmmakers who have been shooting here for the past 10 days.

It was important for me to celebrate them, especially the younger creatives among the team. Our industry grows stronger when we support one another, share knowledge, and create spaces where the next generation can thrive.

Film is not just about cameras and lights — it is about community, collaboration, and unity.

At KAP Film Village, we are building more than a location… we are building a home for African storytellers. @kapfilmvillageandresort

Here’s to more stories, more collaborations, and a stronger film family. 🎬✨ @kayodekasum @realyemisolade @ronkeoshodioke @odunomoadekola @toyin_abraham @realmercyaigbe @bolajiogunmola @_timini @kamo_state @mikeafolarin @tomike_a @kiitanbukola @_geepeey

Swallow (2021) will always be more than just a film to me.
It is deeply personal.

Set in the 1980s, it took me back to my childhood days in Ebute Metta… the streets, the energy, the people, the struggles, the dreams, and the little details that shaped my imagination as a young boy.

This film also marked a special milestone in my journey — my first official credit as a Production Designer. Beyond directing the story, I became completely immersed in recreating an era that still lives vividly in my memory. From the architecture, costumes, buses, props, colors, signage, and textures of old Lagos, every detail mattered.

Rebuilding the spirit of the 80s was challenging, exciting, emotional, and deeply fulfilling all at once. It was truly a labor of love.

One of the greatest joys of the journey was collaborating with such an incredible cast and dedicated crew, whose passion and commitment helped bring this world to life so beautifully. Their energy, talent, and belief in the vision made the experience even more special for me.

Swallow was my way of preserving memories, culture, and a time that helped shape who I am today.

Some films entertain…
Some films become a part of your soul.
Swallow is one of mine.

It’s an adaptation of the book “Swallow” by the renowned writer @sefi.atta

And we added a beautiful soundtrack Album @kent_edunjobi @niyola @anu_afolayan . Available on streaming platforms

Set in the 1980s, it took me back to my childhood days in Ebute Metta… the streets, the energy, the people, the struggles, the dreams, and the little details that shaped my imagination as a young boy.

This film also marked a special milestone in my journey — my first official credit as a Production Designer. Beyond directing the story, I became completely immersed in recreating an era that still lives vividly in my memory. From the architecture, costumes, buses, props, colors, signage, and textures of old Lagos, every detail mattered.

Rebuilding the spirit of the 80s was challenging, exciting, emotional, and deeply fulfilling all at once. It was truly a labor of love.

One of the greatest joys of the journey was collaborating with such an incredible cast and dedicated crew, whose passion and commitment helped bring this world to life so beautifully. Their energy, talent, and belief in the vision made the experience even more special for me.

Swallow was my way of preserving memories, culture, and a time that helped shape who I am today.

Throwback to April 2021 when Citation took over Cape Verde!

We hosted a special screening to celebrate a massive win for Pan-African cinema, bringing together Nigeria, Senegal, and Cape Verde. Since parts of the movie were actually shot there, it was the perfect full-circle moment.

Citation is proof that when African creatives cross borders, cultures, and languages to build together, the magic hits different.

At the #ITSOyoState2026 plenary session, I shared the vision behind @kapfilmvillageandresort and its growing impact.

I must extend my sincere appreciation to the Executive Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde @seyi_amakinde, and his visionary team @oysgtourism. Their dedication to creating policies that align with cultural and economic growth makes partnerships like ours possible.

What started as a bold idea has become a hub for culture, storytelling, and tourism, creating jobs and boosting commerce. I also highlighted our upcoming Museum of African Cinema, aimed at preserving our heritage.

This is about impact. Intentional investment in film, hospitality, and community can truly transform lives.

A clip from 'Nigeria: Culture in Transition' (filmed in 1963, but premiered in February 1964). This was an episode in the "World Theatre'' series of TV films sponsored by the Standard Oil of New Jersey Company [Esso] and directed by Bert Lawrence. It is an intriguing film with superb commentary by Wole Soyinka. In the clip provided here, Wole examines an Mbari House: the Shrine of Ala, the Igbo Earth goddess. Nearly half of the runtime features a performance of Wole Soyinka's play, “The Strong Breed." It also features Segun Olusola, who read an excerpt from Amos Tutuola's “The Palm Wine Drinkard." Other features include a filming of Duro Ladipo's "Oba Moro" in Oshogbo, a tribal dance to J.P Clark's "Agbor Dancer" poem, a talking drum demonstration in praise of Ògún, and an exhibition of sculptures. Christopher Okigbo's poem, "Watermaid," another example of modern Nigerian poetry, was read by Vinie Burrows and Earle Hyman. Drifting completely from Lawrence's original idea, Wole would take charge as lead writer to change what was intended as a piece of exotica.
The first film in the monthly TV series featured Britain, hosted by Sir Ralph Richardson. Nigeria was the second installment, hosted by Wole. The third in the series would air in March 1964 in a program titled, 'The Frozen Moment,' hosted by Japan's Sessue Hayakawa.

Wole Soyinka narrated/wrote/directed/featured in a number of TV films, plays. or documentaries in the 60s, though he spent about two years in the decade, in prison. His work includes a featurette on Kokoro (1960, WNTV), My Father's Burden (1960, WNTV), Joshua: A Nigerian Portrait (1963, CBC), Culture in Transition (1964, WOR-TV), Africa (1967, ABC, though this was used in the 1968 TV Film 'The Problem of Nigerian Unity'), among others.
