Silent Scandals premieres amid glitz and grandeur

For all the Nollywood stars, celebrities and other VIPs that gracefully attended the world premiere of Silent Scandals, the big budget movie, penultimate Sunday, at the upscale Oriental Hotel, Lekki, Lagos, one fact they unanimously agreed, was that it was painstakingly put together.

In fact, pretty Vivian Ejike and her very courteous team, paid attention to details while putting the glamorous and one stop premiere that wowed all, together.

Aside the expansive and beautifully decorated hall, purple, the colour of the lovely and memorable event, was conspicuously visible within and outside the venue.

Invited guests, who were splendidly garbed, also obeyed the dress code, by adding a touch of purple to their trendy attires.

Cocktails, canapés and champagnes flowed ceaselessly at the colourful premiere professionally anchored by leading actor and entertainer, Basorge Tariah Jar. Tariah, the honcho of Solid Stars Records, kept the guests reeling in unending laughter with his rich and mature jokes. He was later joined on stage by emerging comedienne, Helen Paul, who cracked many ribs with her bagful of jokes and jibes.

Diva Omawunmi and still recuperating Pop star, Paul Play Dairo, further propelled the fun-filled event to another level, with their electrifying performances, which were well-applauded by all. Obviously, the highpoint of the evening; was the fashion show put together by Zizi Cardow, where all the stars in the movie, cat-walked to the admiration of the thrilled guests.

In her brief welcome address, Vivian Ejike, thanked all for coming, promising that the evening would be a memorable one. And it was.

She further explained that Silent Scandals addresses the issues of love; loyalty and societal pressure as it negatively affects the lives of various individuals. “This movie is a true family drama, which critically mirrors the above issues as they affect the lives of everyday character in our society today”.

Also present at the premiere to support and felicitate with one of their own are: the national presidents of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), Association of Movie Producers and the Directors Guild of Nigeria (DGN), Segun Arinze, Paul Obazele and Bond Emeruwa respectively.

The duo of Genevieve Nnaji, and Ghanaian import, Michel Majid, led the pack of stars in the riveting movie, due to begin daily showings at the Silverbird cinemas nationwide soon. Other acts include: Uche Jombo, Ebele Okaro, Christy Okonkwo and a host of others.

It would be recalled that the movie had earlier premiered in Ghana, to a packed audience, which included the who-is–who in that country’s entertainment circuit. According to an excited guest who graced the Lagos event. “This is the movie premiere of the year”.
