This is just as Peter Okoye of the Psquare fame and rapper, Phyno are the latest addition to Genevieve Nnaji‘s directorial debut, “Lion Heart.” The anticipated movie, “Lion Heart” will be a must see as it features legends and ace movie stars.

Nnaji’s first self-produced movie from TEN was ‘Road To Yesterday’ which featured Majid Michel, Ebere Okaro and Chioma ‘Chigul’ Omeruah as well as British actor and model Oris Erheuro, who plays Izu. Road To Yesterday is about a couple in dire need of a solution to their marital issues. The movie directed by Ishaya Bako tells of a struggling couple trying to save their failing marriage by reconnecting on a road trip.
Nnaji is a movie goddess who has risen to fame from the bottom. I personally cannot wait for this movie to be out.
