A NIGHT OF STARS, STUDS & DIAMONDS

Special guest Obi Asika said it best in describing the experience as:

“Pure class. Living In Bondage: Breaking Free is pure, unadulterated class. From the magnificent guests to the jaw-dropping red carpet, and best of all, a film that I consider Nollywood’s best ever, Living In Bondage: Breaking Free without doubt took it there. Thank you, Play Networks, for a film of sheer creative genius. And to my dear brother, Charles Okpaleke, thank you for the vision. You sure took it there.”

Kunle Afolayan joined in commending Ramsey Nouah “for a world-class directorial debut. I would hate to compete with Living In Bondage in 2019. This is an all-round creative genius.”

Uche Jumbo, Chioma Akpotah, Niyi Akinmolayan, Funlola Aofiyebi and other Nollywood greats added glowing tributes to a film widely adjudged as ‘possibly Nollywood’s greatest ever.’
