Nollywood actress and filmmaker, Omoni Oboli, has been named as headline act of the next edition of Genesis Deluxe Cinema’s Nolly Thursdays. The event comes up April 14.
Nolly Thursdays is geared towards promoting and celebrating Nollywood movies (old and new) in the cinema.
Organisers also say that Oboli’s latest movie, Wives on Strike, will also screen at event. The actress recently premiered the movie at the VIP Screening Room of Genesis Deluxe Cinema. Among those who turned out to support their colleague in the industry were Uche Jombo, Ufuoma McDermott, Chioma Akpotha, Kehinde Bankole, Bovi, Julius Agwu, Monalisa Chinda, Ashionye, Blessing Egbe, and Annie Idibia.
According to the actress; “Wives on Strike is a hilarious comedy about a group of market women who decided to take matters into their own hands against their husbands in a bid to stir them into standing up for a young girl whom they wanted to protect from the wishes of her own father. The women, who hilariously interpret their roles, set a series of events in motion to give the movie many moments of laughter without missing a beat on the reason for everyone to know why they are on strike.”
