    The Federal Government has congratulated media entrepreneur and filmmaker Mo Abudu over her partnership with leading global streaming service Netflix to create two original series as well as multiple Netflix-branded films.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Friday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said the partnership, for on-screen adaptation of Wole Soyinka's 'Death and The King's Horseman' and Lola Shoneyin's 'The Secret Lives of Baba Segi's Wives', adds another feather to Mo Abudu's already well-adorned creative cap.
The Minister also described the deal as a big boost for the country's Creative Industry, at a time the industry is reeling from the negative  effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.
''Coming after Netflix's first Nigeria original film, Lionheart, this is a great recognition of the immense creative talents that abound in
Nigeria and the provision of a global platform for Nigeria storytelling,'' he said.
Alhaji Mohammed expressed the hope that this partnership will signal the beginning of a bigger, mutually-beneficial working relationship between the streaming service and Nigeria's Creatives.
