Mo Abudu thanks Soyinka after bagging Netflix deal

Nigerian media mogul, Mosunmola Abudu, popularly called Mo Abudu has thanked Professor Wole Soyinka after bagging a multiple deal with Netflix.

Netflix has announced a partnership deal with Mo yesterday to bring Nigeria’s most beloved literary classics to screens around the world!

This will be a series-adaptation of Lola Shoneyin's "The Secret Lives of Baba Segi's Wives" and a film-adaptation of Prof. Wole Soyinka’s "Death And The King's Horseman!".

The talk show host took her official Instagram page to heap praises on the Nobel Prize for the opportunity created by his work.

"Thank you so much for all your beautiful messages, reposts, phone calls, whatsApp messages, text messages and emails received yesterday, congratulating us on our multiple deal with Netflix. I am truly thankful by the outpouring of love and support. God bless and keep you all. I pray God gives you all the desires of your hearts. ?????????????????

"I mentioned a few weeks ago, that Professor Wole Soyinka was my very first ever interview when I started my talk show, Moments with Mo in 2006. Many years later after my journey into TV and Film, it occured to me that i wanted to produce IP related projects, so again I reached out to Prof and made my request to acquire the rights to Death and the King's Horseman ( what a daunting task that was ????????). Lets just cut a long story short, ????????due to the pedigree and importance of this work, It took a considerable amount of time getting to closure on this, but we eventually did ????????????????????????. Now 5 years later I have the opportunity to produce this incredible piece of work in partnership with Netflix. I could not be more pleased. God is truly awesome?????????????????

"Dear Prof, thank you so much for trusting me and giving me the opportunity to produce such a historical piece of our literature.?

"Below is a quote from Prof, which forms part of the press statement issued yesterday: “In a creative industry which, even in pioneering countries, is so male-dominated, it is always a delight to see robust challenges offered by the female gender, and of attestable quality. Mo Abudu's incursion into this arena as film and television producer has been especially stimulating. It becomes part of one's sense of achievement if one has contributed, however minutely, to the creation of an enabling environment.”?

"Prof has such a way with words. I love the way he writes?????????????"
