Heard about this last night, so so sad For those that do not know him... He is a writer and director... He directed the movie Half of a Yellow Sun adapted from the novel of the same name by Chimamanda Adiche and was also involved in MTV Shuga, Fifty the movie Blood sisters and many more... Personally I've followed his works and have been looking forward to seeing his new work Eleshin Oba, (Death and the King's Horseman also an adapted work from Soyinka's book of same title) I can assure you he's a fine filmmaker. 24 Likes |

please i am pleading with you guys to tell Seniorwriter Charles Adarokaren to refund me back my money for a transaction i paid for since 3pm Wednesday 27th July, 2022 afternoon. He kept ignoring me since then till now!!! His number 0907 920 4499 I thought he has a reputation and name to protect? I found it amusing that someone that has been on nairaland since 2019 and has over 5k messages and engagements which so many people know is involved in this kinda scam.. It shows the integrity of average Nigerian when they have the opportunity to rip you off yur hard earn money. They simply throw integrity to the wind because of money wey no reach anything in this Nigeria economy. He is online here on Nairaland and refuses to reply chats.. Seniorwriter is a scam. Return my money. 3 Likes 1 Share |
