I\u2019m talking about what I know and what I\u2019m currently experiencing. That\u2019s why I produced a short film about pregnancy and motherhood and the fact that it is what women are going through, and it can be tough \u2013 you have two people who are about to parents, it can be exciting but at the same time the couple may be processing things in completely different ways –\u00a0 it is something I wanted to highlight.\u201d<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n The short film, being only 15 mins long was impactful and met with rave reviews, the screening was quickly followed by a\u00a0 panel session which was moderated by <\/span>Toyosi Etim- Effiong<\/b>,\u00a0<\/span>joining here were Marcy Dolapo Oni, Tito Bez-Idakula, Oscar Oyinsan, Anita Okoye,<\/b>\u00a0and<\/span>\u00a0Noble Igwe<\/b>\u00a0who spoke through the issues depicted in the film and on how creating a healthy family is part of a growth process.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n In attendance were Dolapo\u2019s husband,<\/span>\u00a0Prince Adegbite Sijuwade<\/b>, <\/span>Mo Abudu, Biola Alabi, Bolanle Austen-Peters, Bez Idakula, Baaj Adebule, Daniel Etim-Effiong, Waje, Chigul, Osas Ighodaro, Ozinna Anumudu, Emmanuel Ikubese, Anita Adeoye,<\/b>\u00a0and many more guests.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Synopsis of Omowa<\/b><\/p>\n The pregnancy journey is a profound one. Many women find greater purpose in their lives by becoming mothers although it is not always the case. But it is no less a profound journey for a man. We see Folarin and Salewa, a young couple living in Lagos, as they manoeuvre their way through their relationship. They are about to embark on a new phase of their lives. Parenthood. While all seems well and straight forward, cracks soon begin to show as it becomes clear they are not on the same page. While becoming a parent, in theory, sounds wonderful the reality of it becomes all too daunting for Folarin.<\/b><\/p>\n <\/p>\n See all the photos from her TW Magazine Cover and the premiere below!<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n SEYI BABATOPE<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n SIMI ESIRI<\/strong><\/p>\n SIMI ESIRI AND ANITA OKOYE<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n CHI GURL, MARCY DOLAPO ONI AND WAJE<\/strong><\/p>\n BEZ IDAKULA<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n BOLANLE AUSTEN-PETERS<\/strong><\/p>\n MARCY DOLAPO ONI AND ADEGBITE SIJUWADE<\/strong><\/p>\n MARCY DOLAPO ONI AND OSAS IGHODARO<\/strong><\/p>\n NOBLE IGWE<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n MARCY DOLAPO ONI AND TOYOSI ETIM-EFFIONG<\/strong> BAAJ ADEBULE, OSCAR OYINSAN AND SEYI BABATOPE<\/strong><\/p>\n EMMANUEL IKUBESE AND ANITA ADETOYE<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Dolapo Oni is social\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n Instagram <\/span>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/marcydolapooni\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Twitter: <\/span>https:\/\/twitter.com\/MarcyDolapoOni<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/lyglam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcy-on-TW.jpg\")
