Chairman of First Bank of Nigeria (FBN), Ibukun Awosika will be making her Nollywood debut in ‘Citation‘, a forthcoming movie by Yoruba actor and filmmaker, Kunle Afolayan.
Awosika took to her social media page to make the announcement.
According to her, her dive into the movie industry is a “great adventure and risk worth taking,” adding that such opportunity will further help her to advance the fight against females in the society.
She took to her Instagram page and wrote;
“It is not in all situations, that we get a chance to do more than talk, about an issue that we are passionate about. The challenges that the female gender faces in her pursuit to be her best is multi dimensional,” .
“When great institutions all come together, with an award winning producer to take on a global issue, it seemed like a good risk worth taking as well as a great adventure into a field I had never experienced. Real respect for the players of the field.”
Afolayan also took to his social media page to share photos of himself posing alongside Awosika and other cast of the movie.
