It could be recalled that a decade ago, Ghanaians prefer Nollywwod movies to that of our own.
And
to eradicate that preference, the CEO of Venus film blended our
industry with the Nigerian crew and actors. Today, Salam’s vision did
not only revive our movie industry but also, created a family bond among
these two countries.
Having starred in a Nollywood and Ghanaian
movie, Zainab O. Sheriff of the Big Brother Stargme fame thought it wise
to follow the steps of Abdul Salam Mumuni to revive the movie industry
in Sierra Leone.
In the quest to get the best, she invited casting crew from London to audition and groom the SL’s wannabes for two months.

Information reaching us today says
the diva’s production cameras has being rolling for a week now with
Moses Inwang as the director.
Respectively, John Dumelo and
James Gardiner play the lead and supporting in her first producing
movie, titled; Ghetto Queen (working title).
On a phone interview
with Zainab, she said: “Sierra Leone has great talents but lacks
professionalism. As a model, I was surprise to be told that my acting
was a natural and for that moment I felt the actors back home could do
much better should there be an investor. I’m not quitting modeling but
helping to build a better movie industry in my country. ” She smiles.
