A Nollywood film producer and actor, Ezekiel Onah, says his target in the next five years is to shoot movies with American filmmakers.
The Chief Executive Officer of Izzy Entertainment Concept in an interview in Enugu, said his biggest legacy in the industry would be shooting big film projects in Hollywood standard.
Onah said he had inspiration of becoming a renowned film producer which motivated him into joining Nollywood.
Disclosing that he started writing scripts at a very tender age, Onah said: “I am a natural story teller and everyday I dwell in the dream of achieving that. I joined Nollywood to shoot my untold stories myself. I have always wanted to be a renowned film producer
“I joined mainstream Nollywood film practice which I combined with a course in the Institution of Management and Technology (IMT), Enugu
“As a filmmaker, I enjoyed every challenge I encounter during filmmaking because it makes me stronger and the passion I have is deep.”
He added that he had produced over seven movies and currently shooting one of the biggest films in South East titled “Adoration Power.”
He, however, rated Nollywood movies high, saying “Nigeria movies are really trying in Africa and we should be appreciated.”
The Enugu State-born movie maker stressed that all that was required was to improve the movie industry through funding and source for good stories.
