Damilola Bamiloye Directs Father in "Agbara Nla" Remake

Damilola Bamiloye shared an emotional experience directing his father, Mike Bamiloye, in the remake of "Agbara Nla," a film originally made over two decades ago. During an appearance on The Morayo Brown Show, Damilola revealed that directing his father in the same role he had admired as a child nearly brought him to tears.

The decision to remake "Agbara Nla" stemmed from a desire to make the story more accessible to a broader audience, as the original was produced in Yoruba, limiting its reach. The new version consolidates the seven parts of the original narrative into a single 2-hour, 30-minute film, enhanced with technological improvements.

Damilola and his brother reflected on their upbringing within Mount Zion Ministries, emphasizing the supportive community around them and their parents' loving relationship. They also addressed criticisms regarding the portrayal of Yoruba culture in Mount Zion films.
