Multiple award-winning filmmaker, Kunle Afolayan, has treated staff of the Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC) to a private screening of his latest movie, Mokalik.
The screening of the movie took place on May 3 as part of the company’s Workers Day celebrations.
This is coming weeks before the movie is scheduled to appear in cinemas from May 31s.

The movie marked pop musician, Simi’s, first appearance in a feature film.
