Saturday, April 27, 2019 was an evening of laughter, merriment and unreserved applause as the management of Wale Adenuga Productions hosted the FIRS boss, Dr Babatunde Fowler, at a private screening of the movie at Genesis Deluxe Cinemas Lekki, Lagos.

Speaking after the screening of the movie, Dr Babatunde Fowler said “It’s a very interesting movie which shows the talents we have in Nigeria. When people think about movies, their minds go to the foreign movies, but this is certainly a first-class movie and I think it would be acceptable and watched all over the world.”

In his response, Wale Adenuga MFR, Executive Producer of Knockout, said “I am greatly impressed by the unprecedented performance of FIRS under Dr Babatunde Fowler. He has contributed immensely in revenue generation for the provision of amenities and the overall betterment of the country. He has also been very supportive of the Nigerian Entertainment Industry thus creating jobs for millions of our youths and turning their dreams into reality.”
