It was a day of celebration as the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu declared the EbonyLife Creative Academy (ELCA) open in a brief ceremony. The academy was conceived by EbonyLife CEO Mo Abudu and is supported by the Lagos State Government through Lagos State Creative Industries Initiative (LACI), under the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture.

The world-class facility was set up to improve local film production (which covers all aspects of filmmaking and media content production including acting, directing, producing, editing, sound and lighting), provide job/business opportunities, help film professionals and beginners improve their skills and make them globally competitive in a bid to grow the creative economy and make Lagos the centre of excellence for African creatives.
