Nigeria’s Mo Abudu launches Africa-wide entertainment Television network
Tuesday, July 2, 2013
It will feature a specially commissioned movie, “New Horizons,” from award-winning filmmaker Tope Oshin Ogun that bares the plight of women across the continent subjected to domestic abuse, a prevalent crime that is not often addressed.
And radio host Oreka Godis stars in “Love Lounge,” where she will ask the cheeky questions for which she is known of sexologists, life coaches and psychotherapists.
While Nollywood movies were once notorious for poor quality, Abudu aims for the highest quality in a network she hopes will eventually be broadcast beyond Africa to the millions in the diaspora.
“What we say is ‘Everything you think you know about Africa is about to change,'” Abudu said.
