Nollywood super star, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde was at the Nigerian Stock Exchange in Lagos as guest of the market operators who invited her to close the market for the year 2015.

Speaking after she sounded the last closing bell of the year at the Lagos Bourse, the actress and producer described the Nigerian stock market as a potential capital raising channel for the entertainment industry in Nigeria.

She noted that with what she experienced on Thursday, she is ready to spread the good news about equities and its potentials within the entertainment industry.

“My impression of the Stock Exchange right now is that this is the market that entertainment industry needs to get to know about. We are obviously not aware of the fact that entertainment outfit could actually be listed. It was also surprising to me initially but I hope that in the year 2016, we would be able to do something about that,” she said.

The actress said while speaking with the exchange executives that they actually made her promise to bring her company to the exchange.

“And it’s not going to be my own company alone as there are many other respectable entertainment outfits out there that could also benefit from the experience and opportunities. Since I am fortunate to be here, I will surely spread the news,” Omotola noted.
