cutting cake


Women in Film and Television launched its Nigerian chapter yesterday, at the Get Arena Lekki.The event had in attendance, Gbemi Olateru as the master of ceremonies, and sits on the board of WIFTIN as a Director, and several members of the WIFTIN board, journalists from all the major newspapers in the country.

Ebi Akpeti, author of "The perfect church" a book which has been adapted into an award winning block buster by the prolific entertainment guru Wale Adenuga Productions, spoke at the event, encouraging people to follow their passion as an organization like WIFTIN would help nurture that dream and provide platforms for them to be exposed internationally. She went further to tell us about her other books and how she started writing, as a she has a 9-5 job as a banker and still finds time to do what she loves doing
Women in Film and Television, Nigeria [WIFT-N], is a  membership based non-profit organization borne out of the need for capacity building for the female youth and to recognize and support the women working in Nigerian screen-based and other media.
WIFT-N aims to empower women interested and involved in the Media and recognizes the women whose efforts have impacted positively to the growth of the Nigerian media industry. As a growing economy, there are great opportunities and talents to be tapped into for the continued success of our local media practitioners, in Nigeria, Africa and around the world. By this, WIFT-N has stepped in to be better prepared and sensitize our women on the need for professionalism, persistence, dedication and resilience in working for and in the media.
The Nigerian entertainment industry has attained global recognition primarily due to the daily turn out of movies and musical videos through the broadcast of same on diverse national and international television networks. The inadvertent exposure massively given to local entertainers, actors, film directors or producers, etc. presupposes the necessity for the  existence of a body to create awareness on measures adopted by fellow practitioners in more developed countries, and especially the women, in breaking new grounds and achieving greater professional successes and accolades.
WIFT-N enjoys recognition by the global organization, Women In Film and Television International [WIFTI], which provides the foundation for global cooperation and integration with other WIFT chapters. Furthermore, it strives to be a voice for Nigerian women in the industry, providing them also with the opportunity to interface directly with women media practitioners from other nations of the world.
With these possibilities open to women in Nigeria, it would open up new possibilities and milestones for the country and subsequently the continent.
