These are indeed good times for members
of the Lagos State chapters of the Actors Guild of Nigeria following a deal
signed by leadership of the association with the management of MNET to produce
a soap opera that will feature in the cable TV for 52 weeks.
Chairman of the chapter, Mr. Don Pedro
Aganbi told newsmen that the soap as well as a film, Campus Party, will be used
to identify, discover and celebrate new talents in the industry.
An audition for the new soap was held at
the Halie Sellasia hotel in Surulere, early this week.
Meanwhile, leadership of the union has
also come out with the design of a work permit that would enable actors in the
state to work anywhere in the world. The document which is being produced in
conjunction with Interswitch is expected to get the endorsement of major
embassies as authentic identity and work permit for the Lagos Actors Guild.
“We are proud to inform you that we are
already making some progress; these projects shall impact positively on the
members of the guild who we are here to serve. The process to discover and
nurture new talents for the industry has started,” Aganbi revealed.
