Charles who graduated from UNIPORT in 1999 with a degree in theatre art, worked as lancelot Oduwa Imasuen’s assistant director.

“Theory and practice can never be the same. What you are told in the classroom, may be different from what you’ll see in the outside world.”

 

“In drama school you would always find the least number of students as writers. The Screenwriters guild of Nigeria (SWGN) is a guild of the select elect. Writing is a special skill/gift and we know there is an army of people who are creative, who can write but need a little direction or push and the SWGN is positioned to achieve.”
