Ofili “Ewuro” is a movement that will be addressing the social
issue of VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. Speaking about the project, Tim Godfrey, the
President of Republic of Xtreme and Executive Producer of Ewuro said, “Having witnessed violence against my mother
under the guise of culture and tradition when my dad passed on, the occurrence
and recurrence of this ill has become endemic and what is even more troubling
is the extent to which people go to cover it up, both the victims and the
aggressors. We are therefore inspired to creatively address it and re-awaken our
emotions to the true nature of the female experience in Nigeria in the hope
that we will begin to engage in fruitful conversations about this issue and
ultimately, change will begin.”
