Swiss Govt Gives Nollywood Actor, Charles Okafor, N168m For New Movie

The Switzerland Government has given Nollywood actor, Charles Okafor $450,000 ( N168million) to do a movie that centers on the dangers of living illegally in Europe.

The new movie which is exclusively sponsored by the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM) will be aired on Nigerian television stations.

Speaking through spokesperson, Lukas Rieder, the authority revealed that one of the causes of illegal migration is the lack of information or false information.

“Human traffickers tell potential migrants that Switzerland is paradise, it’s El Dorado. But that’s not true. We want to provide objective information about the dangers of passage, and the dangers of living in Switzerland.”

The movie, titled Missing Steps, tells the story of a 20-something-year-old university-educated protagonist. He gets into debt and flees to the landlocked European state to solve his financial problems, with the help of traffickers.

But he is denied asylum by the Swiss authorities, and deported to his own country...
