Genevieve Nnaji: Yeni Kuti Introduced Me To France President Emmanuel Macron

Nollywood boss lady Genevieve Nnaji, was one of the guests at the Afrika Shrine on Tuesday when President Emmanuel Macron of France came to town. While speaking about the visit by Macron in a chat with an online TV platform, the Road to Yesterday producer acknowledged Yeni Kuti, who invited her, as a good host because she had enough to eat and drink.

“It’s my first time and I have made this what I wanted it to be which is fun, we eat food, which is organic, a lot of food, a lot of booze, I feel well fed with a little enough alcohol to turn me to sleep and Yeni has been an amazing host. She actually introduced the President to me…I have had an amazing time overall and I can’t wait to come back,” she said.

The actress, who stated her readiness to be back since she is now aware of how much fun is going on there, said the visit of the France leader is a good omen which can help Nollywood in many ways.

On the visit itself, she described it as welcoming a brother back home.

“Well, having learnt that the man was here back in 2004, it just shows he just returned to his roots. He chose Nigeria as his roots and he’s back and we should just welcome home a brother.”
