He wrote:
‘To give back to Nigeria and help develop the Nollywood movie industry, I want to shoot a Nollywood/Hollywood movie that will take the world by storm and show the entertainment industry that Nigeria’s movie industry has come of age.
‘I will finance this movie and guarantee worldwide distribution both on television and cinema.
‘Now, here’s where you come in.
‘Are you a Nollywood pro? Are you an amateur set on making it big in Nollywood and on the world stage?
‘Send us your script and a panel to be headed by the queen of the African movie industry, our very own Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, will rate the scripts and select the best script and I will sign a contract with the winner and make their script into a movie that will be of sufficient quality to qualify for entry into the world’s very best Film Festivals.
‘Who knows, you could even win an Oscar!’
