Film Made in Nigeria is on revolution at Del-York Creative Academy Capacity Building Program
Film made in Nigeria has gone through several changes in the past decade, and it is about to get even better. Ask two or more people around you and you’d reach a consensus on this fact. And yes, we are on that journey!
If you come by The Digital Bridge Institute, Lagos now and for the next four weeks, you’d see a bright and eager breed of participants undergoing an array of highly intensive hands-on courses at the 2014 Del-York Creative Academy (DCA). The workshop tagged Film Made in Nigeria, is channeled at improving the skillset and creative capacity of film makers and broadcast journalists in Nigeria. Continue...
The scope of courses is as broad as it can get. From Producing to Directing, Acting, Digital Film Making, Broadcast Journalism, Set- designs, Screen Writing, Costume design and make-up, 3D animation, Cinematography, Editing, Graphics and Special Effects, there is something for everyone.
Select members from the Directors Guild of Nigeria, The Nigerian Society of Editors, Creative Designers Guild of Nigeria, Screenwriters Guild of Nigeria, Nigerian Society of Cinematography, Actors Guild of Nigeria and the Association of Movie Producers (AMP) will enjoy first in class training from tutors of the Del-York Creative Academy.
“With a penchant for quality training, the academy engaged trainers from Los Angeles and New York who have since arrived Lagos and are excited and overly ready to impact the students and expose them to high-tech equipment and methods that will make them equal contenders with their international counterparts” says Dr. Linus IDAHOSA, CEO of Del-York International.
Del-York International in partnership with the New York Film Academy has so far trained over 650 aspiring and professional filmmakers, some of whom have either received or been nominated to win several local and International awards.
This year’s program is powered by the Project Act-Capacity Building Fund which is dedicated to supporting skills acquisition along the entire value chain of the Nigerian Entertainment Industry.
You can be a part of the entire program through its live coverage through the hashtag #DCA2014 and on the Academy’s social media platform:

Jonathan condemns terror attack in Kano, Adamawa & Cameroon
Jonathan condemns terror attack in Kano, Adamawa & Cameroon

President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan wholeheartedly condemns the recent terrorist attacks in Kano and Adamawa States as well as the kidnap of the Lamido of Kolofata in Northern Cameroon, Lamido Seini Lamine and the wife of the Vice Prime Minister of Cameroon.
The President describes as shocking, callous and reprehensible the multiple bomb blasts that occurred in Kano within 24 hours, and the unrelenting attacks by the Boko Haram at a time the Muslim faithful are observing the holy festival of Eid el Fitri.
He commiserates with the families of all those who lost their loved ones in the Kano and Adamawa attacks and wishes the injured speedy recovery.
President Jonathan further notes that the deployment of young women as suicide bombers represents a new low in the inhuman campaign by these terrorists and an expression of utter disregard for the dignity of the female gender as well as a wicked exploitation of the girl-child.
The President states that the abduction of the Lamido of Kolofata and the wife of the Vice premier of Cameroon clearly underscores the regional security threat that Boko Haram has become.
He welcomes the recent resolve by the Defence Ministers of Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad, Benin and Niger to further strengthen existing partnerships in order to forestall the desperate attempt by misguided elements to turn the sub-region into a battleground for terrorism and radical extremism.
President Jonathan urges the security forces to remain resolute, and not be discouraged by the desperation of the agents of evil. He believes that with the continued cooperation between Nigeria’s security forces and their counterparts in neighbouring countries, the war against terror will surely be won.

Osun campaign: Lagbaja rejects Iyiola Omisore’s offer, blasts him...


According to The Nation, Lagbaja was approached to entertain supporters of Omisore, the candidate of PDP in the up-coming governorship election in Osun State, but he declined the offer, saying;
"Though the court of the land discharged and acquitted you (Omisore) in the murder case against the former Minister of Justice in Nigeria, the late Cicero of Esa-Oke & foremost nationalist, Chief Bola Ige, I have deep-rooted innermost conviction that you are culpable in the death of my mentor and benefactor. If you offer me all the allocation of Osun State during your four-year-tenure peradventure you win (which I seriously doubt), I will not perform for Iyiola Omisore governorship election.”

Another bomb blast in Kano this morning
Another bomb blast in Kano this morning
The Nigeria Police Force just announced that another bomb blast occurred this morning at NNPC mega station along Maiduguri road in Kano state. Continue for a press statement from the police...
Today, 28-07-14 at about 10:00am, another suicide bomb went off at Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation NNPC Mega Filling Station at Hotoro Quarter along Maiduguri Road, Kano. A suicide bomber suspected to be a female had slipped into the crowd of citizens buying kerosene at the Station before detonating the explosives. The suicide bomber and three others have been confirmed dead, eight persons are injured and rushed to the Hospital.
It is instructive to note that the Mega Station did not go ablaze due to the security barricade put in place by the Policemen on duty at the station. Such a situation would have clearly complicated the Emergency response.
Security Forces have cordoned off the scene, and Police Bomb Disposal Experts are "sweeping" the area. Citizens are advised to stay off the scene, be vigilant and report any suspicious person(s) or activities to security forces. Full scale investigation has commenced, intensive patrol of the city is ongoing.
