Curtain call (for Alexx) Morning came too soon Before we were sated From the nights of great wonder The graceless lights of morning On thin lines Un-thin lives A prime was approaching When they turned the lights on A curtain unasked for No chance for that encore And so we wander The foyer of numb limbs Thru fog and morn’s light Thru dust, desert sunsets An end to endless winds Our thoughts to world’s end Living one, leaving all Yet the sun never stopped The moon’s heart unbroken That youth was fleet footed And tide came too soon

Hey Everyone, It’s been a while. I thought to peek out a little to confirm the absolute worst kept secret - yes, The Black Book: Old Scores, is happening, with Severance producer, Nicky Weinstock, joining the team as producer. The last two years have been frenetic for me, writing what’s become my favourite script along with my friend, Bunmi Ajakaiye, and working with Nicky, Mimi, and Ashley to raise unprecedented capital for the production of this historic production, with support from, Adino Capital, Mango Tree and Blooming Caravan. The Black Book became the most successful Nigerian film globally and it was important that the sequel meets the high standards set in our 2023 film. I’m excited to say that you are going to absolutely love Old Scores. Richard Mofe-Damijo returns as Paul Edima, with Wongi Ibom as sidekick! A brand new story. New characters. New world, painted with my home state in the Niger Delta as a breathtaking backdrop. Some of your favourite characters have returned, but the new characters will absolutely blow you away. Making Old Scores was an amazing experience - the biggest Nigerian production to date, backed by a Nigerian and International crew, 300 strong, and cast joining us from Nigeria, UK, US Japan etc. to make tell a truly incredible film. Every film is made by believers and I am deeply grateful for the friends who joined me on this journey. Grateful for Yinka Edward, who returned as DOP and Co-Producer, alongside Yolanda Okereke, also Costume Designer, with Joshua Enekahire as Assistant Director and Mosadoluwa Olaleka as Production Designer. We really can’t wait to share Old Scores with you!

Two years ago, my first feature film, #TheBlackBook was released on @Netflix. It would go on to become a global hit and Nigeria’s most successful film of all time on the platform. Thank you all for watching and pushing us to greatness. Deeply grateful to my cast, crew, investors, and everyone who was part of that journey. The Black Book changed everything, opened big doors, and allowed us dream even bigger dreams. We know now for sure, nothing is impossible. I can’t wait to share what we have coming.

Work the hardest, bring the most joy to all. See the vision. Be the vision. Make memories, be a blessing. Words will always be words. There are no monuments to those who talked, only those who did.

The journey will always be lonely if you are doing a thing no one has done before. That’s the fate of the forerunner. That you suffered doesn’t mean others have to. Chest the suffering and send the ladder down for your father’s children.

As an African filmmaker, you can’t be so selfish as to think the opportunity you get is for you alone. You represent, at all times, a whole tribe. Once that door is opened, you have a responsibility to act in ways which keep that door open.

Did my first 20-minute plank record yesterday. It was so hard, I could only manage 12 minutes on my first attempt today. Yesterday took virtue out of my core 🥵
