Nollywood film-maker and Director General of Callywood Studios, Egor Efiok, made this statement in an interview with nationonline. This was a reaction to when she was asked why she jumped to defend Nollywood when Kunle Afoloyan spoke down on it.
She commented that as much as she respected the filmmaker, she couldn’t help but be disappointed with the chip on his shoulder. She said that he should also respect the veterans who blazed the trail for him to become huge today. ”For me, humility is key always,” she said.
For those that don’t know who she is, Egor Efiok is a scriptwriter, producer and inspirational speaker. Since taking over Callywood, the acronym for Calabar movie industry, Nollywood has witnessed a surge in creative Hollywood films; among them ‘I Am Bassey’ and ‘The Father’ coming from that stable.
Reputed to have connections in the United States of America’s (USA) Hollywood Studios, Egor Efiok has always represented the Nollywood with passion.
