Francis added that the major aim of the program is to connect interesting African stories to the global film industry.

“I am super glad the program has been a huge success since its launch. As have always said, Africans and African stories are not well represented in the global film industry. Our aim is to change that by providing meaningful, engaging, and indigenous content for African families and those living in the diaspora”, he said.

On his part, CEO AflikTV and music singer, Akeju noted that the distribution of the work by AnimaxFYB was a great opportunity to expand African inspired content which is peculiar to Aflik TV services.

“It’s really exciting working with Francis. Y. Brown on this project.

“No doubt he’s an extraordinary filmmaker, especially in his animation work. The idea we always want to push out is to have our children see a reflection of themselves in film”, he added.
