Quotes
My full names are Nnaemeka Charles Eze. A native of Orba in Udenu L.G.A of Enugu state. I’m a graduate of Geology from University Of Nigeria, Nsukka. A writer and publisher of over 50 story books/novels for children and young adults. I’m also a movie writer and producer. I do music for fun and as an artiste, I have worked with Mr. Raw, Kcee, Storm Rex, Zoro, Dekumzy, Splash, Slow Dog etc. I am an On Air Personality with Dream 92.5fm Enugu. I own and anchor a local program, Ogabuagaa. It’s an indigenous program that i use to reach out to people of all classes.
It’s been long. Since 2001. Then I and my friend (William Charles Agbo) used to write and produce movies for marketers. Together we produced movies like Take My life, Final Goodbye, Waiting for Death, Shadows of The Enemy etc.
Mummy Why which is an adaptation of one of my books. I receive calls every day from people even outside of Nigeria commending me for the work. It’s a family movie with a difference. I wrote it, produced and sponsored it. Ernest Obi directed it and it featured Pete Edochie, Tony Oneweek, Uche Ogbodo, Ernest Obi, Evi Obi, Harry B, Uncle Jude, Chinwe Owoh, Uloma Eze etc. It’s actually a star-studded movie.
From what our people are going through. Also, children inspire me. I also observe them closely and I am always thinking of what to do to help groom our young ones accordingly. That is why my motto is ‘inspired by kids.
Yes. Mummy Why opened my eyes. It made me realise that parents want movies that they can proudly watch with their kids without skipping any scene. I am shooting the sequel next month.
I write my movies by myself and I am happy many good people believe in the dream. Thanks to Pete Edochie, Ernest Obi, Uncle Jude, Saint Do, Nnamdi Mezue etc.
All of them are my favourites oh. But i have so much love and respect for Ernest Obi and Pete Edochie.
Yes. I crushed on Chidimma after watching her ‘Kedike’ video. She looked so innocent and harmless. Then, I have always admired Genevieve though. But now, I’m married and my wife acts.
Actresses are good people. They make good families and of course have their own family issues like every other family.
We are trying but we still have a long way to go. We need good stories, we need sponsors, we need to put an end to piracy, and we need to spend more time shooting our movies. We need to work with cast and crew that are good for the job and not with sentiment. And the government should come in at this point in time.
Where I am today is not where I thought I would ever be. As a very good footballer, my dream was to become a professional footballer but knee injury killed that dream.
Everything that gives me money has nothing to do with what I studied in the university. But my course of study (Geology) made me strong and resilient. I believe I can do anything through God who created and strengthens me
It’s an action movie that will open the eyes of our youths on the reality of cultism. It’s a big project that I had wanted to partner with my state government but it didn’t pull through. But it’s coming out very well though. My Cast and crew are doing a wonderful job.
I’m ready to work for my people if they need me. If my governor, His Excellency Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi and the good people of Enugu state want me to work for them, I am ready to help build Enugu of our dream. But I can never be a do or die politician. I want to serve and not the other way round because Enugu state is truly in the hands of God.
