He said: “Though I’m not a movie enthusiast, I’m married to one who bombards me daily with her analysis.
“So I can’t miss it.
“Ekiti State is a state of creative art and we have big names in the industry like Peter Fatomilola, Foluke Daramola, Odulade and many others.
“Ekiti is a lot more than what people think we are and we are very delighted to do this and very much love to be associated with the success of the BON Awards.
“We look forward to hosting you and be part of the series of events that follow it.”
