June 04, (THEWILL) – A biopic based on the life of President Bola Tinubu, “Last Man Standing”, is scheduled to premiere in Lagos on June 12.
Seun Oloketuyi, the executive producer of the Best of Nollywood, BON Awards, and the producer of the Biopic, said the development followed after the successful premiere of the movie in Abuja on May 26.
Oloketuyi said Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos, will host the movie premiere in the state alongside selected number of businessmen and politicians.
Directed by Tunde Olaoye, the Biopic features several movie stars including Lateef Adedimeji, Gbenga Adeyinka, Jide Kosoko, Madam Kofo, Shushu Abubakar, Segun Arinze, and Sam Olatunji.
Adedimeji, who acted in the role of the president, had previously disclosed that he was scared to play the movie role.
“Asiwaju is not a mere politician, he is a stakeholder, a man with a lot going on around him, lots of controversies happening at the same time.
“This is somebody that is alive. Someone that can sit and watch you play him, and if you don’t get it right, he will say so eventually. It was a lot of work.”
