According
to Biola Alabi Media (BAM), something big is about to hit the big
screen in a few months time. Chioma Omeruah, popularly known as
‘Chigul’, will be staring in the action packed comedy film ‘Banana
Island Ghost (B.I.G)’, a film BAM is producing in conjunction with
Nemsia Pictures.
 
B.I.G
is said to be a slapstick movie about a ghost that is scared to go to
heaven because he doesn’t have a soulmate, so he convinces God to give
him three days to fall in love. He is paired with the cantankerous
firecracker Ijeoma, played by Chigul who will do anything to save her
father’s house in Banana Island from the bank coming to reclaim it in
three days.
 
It
is the first from a slate of five films in a coproduction partnership
between Biola Alabi Media (BAM) and Nemsia Films. They are combining
their creative capabilities and wealth of experience to produce a slate
of ground-breaking films set to redefine Nollywood.
 
According
to Biola Alabi, the CEO of Biola Alabi Media, “This partnership with
Nemsia Films headed by BB Sasore and Derin Adeyokunnu is part of our
mission to work with great talents to tell great African stories for a
local and global audience. The Nemsia team brings a fresh perspective
and energy to the Nollywood landscape, Nemsia Films is the company
behind the production of ‘Before 30’, the most watched African show.”
 
Banana
Island Ghost (B.I.G) is expected to be an instant classic and
pop-culture staple from Nollywood to the rest of the world. It also
stars industry heavyweights Ali Nuhu, Bimbo Manuel, Damilola Adegbite,
Dorcas Fapson, Patrick Diabuah, Saheed Balogun, Tomiwa Edun, and Uche
Jombo. Scheduled to be released in the summer of 2017, the movie Banana
Island Ghost (B.I.G) is set to be hit!
 
“Embarking

opportunity with Mrs. Biola Alabi came up, we were certain it was the
right step to take. The Team at Biola Alabi Media (BAM) headed by the
