Thomson Makolo Jnr needs no introduction in Nollywood.
His movies like MAKAFAN (shot in Ogori) , OMAYEKWU (shot in Ayingba) ATAMA (shot in Lokoja) and so many of his other works show the immense talent Makolo jnr as an actor and producer is made of.
Thomson Makolo Jnr is an ambassador who believes in using his movies to celebrate culture and traditional values especially from Igala land.
He just finished shooting & has begun the post production of a new work AWO’MI which is a movie set in contemporary times with an ”igalasphere”
One of the things to be expected from this movie is the constant propagation of contemporary Igalacentrism with the usage of Igala idioms and proverbs by the characters.
With a brilliant cast of Igala actors on set I can assure you this movie is a must watch for all lovers of good African movies.
As an Igala man, Makolo has never shyed away from showing the powers of culture & tradition in his movies and this is one of the areas that set him apart from other contemporary movie practitioners.
With AWO’MI Thomson Makolo Jnr has yet again scored another hit with a first class cinematographic standard movie for the global audience using local content from Igala land.
