‘The Boy Child’s Life’, a Nollywood series that depicts everyday deprivations, abuse, exploitations and other challenges the boy child faces, has premiered in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that filmmakers, actors, government functionaries, as well as the cast and crew of the film, were present at its private screening on Saturday night in Abuja.
The 20-series advocacy film brings to fore issues of deprivation, peer pressure and high societal expectations on ordinary male children across Nigeria, highlighting social issues, molestation, drug abuse and unstable family dynamics.
The star-studded series is created by Joyce Nwakanma Productions and directed by ace filmmaker Tola Balogun.
Some of the cast include Sydney Diala, Joyce Nwakanma and Nollywood young sensation, Ebube Diala, who played the principal character in the film.
Some stakeholders, including the cast and crew members, who spoke with NAN on the red carpet, said the project was conceived to lend voice to the struggles the Nigerian male child faces in a quest for survival. (NAN)
