Speaking on the premiere, Executive Producer of REDTV, Bola Atta, said; “There has been a slight delay in production of the hit series third season due to the lockdown occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic, there were efforts taken to ensure that this delay was not prolonged. TMC is one of our major hit series brought from the REDTV stables and powered by the United Bank for Africa.”
“We worked really hard to ensure we were bringing the best this season despite all the delays. The TMC fans have been so loyal and we needed to give them what they wanted. The COVID-19 lockdown meant that we had to halt production right in the middle and this caused quite a bit of stress for us.”
“However, the minute the lockdown eased up, we put the very best measures in place for safety and security for cast and crew, limited the numbers and went back into production.”
“UBA will continue to support the creative industry to ensure that more youths are gainfully employed and presented with opportunities that showcase their talent, boosting economies across Africa.”
“REDTV was birthed by the United Bank for Africa to support the creative industry in Nigeria and across the African continent and for over four years now, we have been creating employment and honing creative talent through entertainment.”
“The potential revenue that can be generated in this industry is often under-estimated and it is only in recent times that more people have had the courage to leave traditional professions and embrace the creatives.”
However, the Chief Executive Officer of Urban Vision and Director of The Men’s Club, Tola Odunsi, said; “We are extremely pleased to partner with UBA and REDTV to create top quality content and jobs. Working with UBA and REDTV has been amazing and with their support, more jobs continue to be created in the entertainment sector.”
“On TMC 3 production we were able to hire a lot of people in different capacities and that ultimately equates to impacting many families, many lives. All thanks to UBA’s support.”
